Description:

Includes all the pieces from the popular Shuten "Sinfonia. The quintessence of Hikarigaoka boldly taking on the latest music! The 5th album by Hikarigaoka Girls' High School, whose activities have always attracted attention, including winning the 《Gold Prize》 at the All Japan Brass Band Competition in 2021. Jun Chosei's "Ad Astra" is performed again for the first time since its premiere in 2017, while Zhou Tian's "Sinfonia," which has been attracting attention since winning the Ostwald Prize in 2022, is recorded in a rare live recording of its Japanese premiere in all four movements. Thomas "Come Sunday," guest conducted by Mamoru Nakata, maximizes the groove of the piece with plenty of jazz and pop idioms. This album contains all the charm of Mitsugaoka, who is always in pursuit of the new and pursues the message of music in every detail. CAFUA Records
