I. Andante
深遠なオーケストラの前奏に続いて、独奏ホルンが孤独な呼び声を上げる。それぞれの楽器と対話しながら深い森へ分け入っていくように進行し、第2楽章へと突入してゆく。
II. Allegro
独奏ホルンがまるで木管楽器かのような急速パッセージを連続して奏で、全体を巻き込みながらスリリングな音楽が展開してゆく。徐々に興奮は冷め、第3楽章へ。
III. Adagio
ホルンのために書かれた緩徐楽章の中で、もっともロマンティックなもののひとつといっても過言ではない、限りなく美しい音楽。長大なカデンツも聴かせどころ。
IV. Vivace
一転、終楽章は軽快なダンスナンバー。馬に乗って時空を自在に駆けるようにすべての楽章を回想し、感動的なフィナーレへと飛翔してゆく(甘粕宏和)

This piece was commissioned by the worldfamous horn player Nobuaki Fukukawa. It was written in November 2015 and premiered at the 3rd regular recital of the Yamamomo Symphonic Band.
Based on the request of Mr. Fukukawa, this piece features a horn solo part which requires a rather advanced technique that is more challenging than regular horn sections. Yet, its theme is melodic, romantic, and memorable, and overall the music is expressive and easy on the ears.
The piece comprises four movements with a tempo structure of slowfastslowfast, with each movement played after the preceding one without any pause.
I Andante
This movement opens with an intriguing orchestral prelude which is followed by the solo horn’s lonely sound. The movement unfolds like a journey into the deep forest as the horn interacts with other musical instruments, which leads into the second movement.
II Allegro
The solo horn plays a series of fast passages reminiscent of a woodwind instrument, and pushes the music into a thrilling section that brings the entire orchestra into the fold. The excitement gradually fades away as the piece enters the third movement.
III Adagio
It would not be an exaggeration to say that this is one of the most romantic slow movements ever to be written for the horn. The music here is simply beautiful and the long cadences are especially worth listening out for.
VI Vivace
The piece abruptly shifts into a lighthearted dance for the final movement which contains allusions to the previous movements as it depicts the scene of someone riding on a horse and freely traversing all of time and space, pushing the piece to its moving finale.
