Song of Friendship was commissioned by the Concert Band of Jumonji University, Saitama, Japan and their conductor, Yutaka Nishida. The commission marked the 50th year of Yutaka Nishida's involvement with bands as a player, conductor and radio presenter. The ceremonial Song of Friendship opens with an extended fanfare, largely featuring the brass section. This leads to the main theme, which develops slowly until it is played by the full band. A change of key signals a contrasting central section containing a quiet woodwind chorale, which grows until the return of the triumphant sounding main theme. Elements of the opening fanfare then close thework.

De opdracht markeerde tevens het vijftigste jaar dat Yutaka Nishida al actief was met blaasorkesten als muzikant, dirigent en radiopresentator. Song of Friendship opent met een uitgebreide fanfare waarin vooral de kopersectie aan het woord is. Dit gedeelte leidt naar het hoofdthema, dat geleidelijk verder wordt uitgewerkt tot het door het volledige orkest wordt gespeeld. Een modulatie kondigt een contrasterend middendeel aan, met een rustig koraal in het hout dat zich verder ontwikkelt tot aan de terugkeer van hettriomfantelijk klinkende hoofdthema. Het werk wordt afgesloten met elementen uit de openingsfanfare. Song of Friendship wurde vom Blasorchester der Jumonji University in Saitama (Japan) und seinem Dirigenten Yutaka Nishida in Auftrag gegeben. Das Auftragswerk steht auch für Yutaka Nishidas über 50-jähriges Engagement im Bereich der Blasmusik als Musiker, Dirigent und Radiomoderator. Das feierliche Stück Song of Friendship beginnt mit einer ausgedehnten Fanfare, die vor allem die Blechbläser herausstellt. Diese führt zum Hauptthema, das sich langsam entwickelt, bis es schließlich vom gesamten Orchester gespielt wird. Ein Tonartwechsel leitet den gegensätzlichen Hauptteil mit einem ruhigen Choral in den Holzbläsern ein, der sich bis zur Wiederkehr destriumphierenden Hauptthemas langsam weiterentwickelt. Das Werk endet mit Elementen aus der Eröffnungsfanfare. Song of Friendship est une commande de l’orchestre d’harmonie de l’Université de Jumonji, Saitama, Japon, et de leur chef Yutaka Nishida. La commande marque aussi la 50e année de l’engagement de Yutaka Nishida avec des bands, que ce soit comme joueur, chef d’orchestre ou présentateur radio. Le cérémonial Song of Friendship commence par une longue fanfare, mettant en scène en particulier les cuivres. Ceci nous mène au thème principal qui se développe ensuite graduellement jusqu’ une interprétation par l’ensemble entier. Une modulation signale le début de la section centrale contrastante. Elle se caractérise par un choral calme pour les bois qui se développeensuite jusqu’au retour du triomphant thème principal. Des éléments de la fanfare du début finissent alors l’œuvre. Il celebrativo Song of Friendship si apre con un esteso tema di fanfara che presenta ampiamente la sezione degli ottoni. Questo conduce al tema principale, che si sviluppa gradualmente fino all’esecuzione da parte di tutta la banda. Un cambio di tonalit anticipa una contrastante sezione centrale che contiene un calmo corale di legni che cresce fino al ritorno trionfante del tema principale. Gli elementi musicali della fanfara d’apertura concludono l’opera.

Our Friendship is based on the Scottish Folk Song Kelvin Grove. Larry Clark has beautifully set this song in a lilting triple meter that flows gently. The original lyrics uplift while portraying the power friendships can have on us all. True friends lift us up in good and bad times and together, friends share meaningful moments that make life better. This song will inspire students to treasure their friendships for a lifetime. This piece is a perfect combination of a flowing melody and inspirational lyrics.
