This piece, jointly commissioned by Shibakiya Honpo and Fukui Prefectural Usui High School in 2011, is titled "Eternal Accuracy" when translated literally. This piece takes the form of accurate elements being disrupted by various motives and then regenerated. Please enjoy the process of giving subtle changes to precise elements, evolving from restoration to progression.

Including scenes of conflict and debate, I hope performers will feel the song in every phrase and rhythm. The ending, which restores tonality, is like a prayer. In this concluding section, I hope you experience warmth and happiness.
