Composed in honor of famed Japanese conductor Toshio Akiyama, "Sensei's Ride On The Cherry Blossom Express" is based upon his love for trains and, in particular, the classic SL D51 steam engine. Our musical journey by train begins at the station in Omiya and takes us on a ride through the most beautiful of countrysides. The scenery is breathtaking and includes the famed cherry blossoms (sakura). Contemporary, yet very accessible to all audiences, this immaginative work for the symphonic band will be a valued addition to any concert program.
