In the programme note for the première the composer wrote: “I am always impressed by the expansive earth and sparkling ocean scenery when I come to Kyushu. I have met many local people here and they are all expressive and energetic. I wrote this dramatic piece to convey to the whole of Japan the memory of my experience here, swaying in the west wind. I wrote this, hoping that the Self Defense Force will forge closer ties with the community through this piece.” Eastern drama felt in the west wind!Dieses Stück basiert auf dem Motto eines japanischen Musikfestivals der japanischen Streitkräfte: Unsere Leidenschaft soll in unserem Herzen widerhallen“. Der Komponist ließ sich außerdem von der eindrucksvollen Küstenlandschaft in Kyushu, wo das Festival stattfand, inspirieren und vom Wunsch, dass die verschiedenen Militärblasorchester der Region engere Bande knüpfen mögen, leiten. Aus diesen Themen entstand dieses ausdruckvolle, dramatische Werk.L’oeuvre fut donnée en création dans le cadre du Festival des Musiques Militaires des Forces armées japonaises 2010, qui s’est tenu sur l’île de Kyushu. Le thème fut « La passion est en nous ». Swaying in the West Wind révèle une profondeur d’expression poignante. Depuis des siècles, Kyushu s’est ouverte aux cultures occidentales. Et c’est la force de ce souffle occidental, de l’énergie des habitants de l’île que Satoshi Yagisawa dépeint dans son oeuvre. Questo brano è stato commissionato dal Japan Ground Self Defense Force Western Army Band di stanza a Kyushu. Il compositore si è ispirato alla questa regione giapponese dichiarando “la bellezza della natura, le grandi distese e il colore dell’Oceano mi hanno profondamente. E questa natura, sono sicuro trasmette le proprie energie agli abitanti di Kyushu, gente molto espressiva ed energia, in perfetta sintonia con la terra in cui vivono”.
