Program Notes: The strikingly vibrant appearance of the peacock has long made a strong impression, even appearing in ancient mythology and religious iconography. While the male's vivid fan-shaped plumage is used to attract females, even before that, the bird's brilliant, greenish-blue body color immediately catches the eye. This piece is not a direct depiction of the peacock's form; rather, it draws inspiration from its rich coloration. With luxurious harmonies and playful interactions of distinctive rhythms, the music is joyfully constructed around this imagery. From the beginning up to section [I], the piece is performed without swing. Starting at [I], it transitions into swing style. Clearly expressing this shift in nuance is key to creating a climax in the first half. From section [L], the music takes on a relaxed, ballad-like character, but should still be performed with a strong sense of rhythm throughout. I hope the music will come across as vibrant and cool with sophisticated flair. (Yosuke Fukuda)
