Scenes from Citizen 13660 / Yukiko Nishimura

『Scenes from Citizen 13660』 for concert band, Grade 3, published by Excelcia Music Publishing
*This piece has been selected for JW Pepper's Editor's Choice.
*This piece was commissioned by Minnesota Junior Winds, Charles Weise, conductor.
I wrote this little suite as a soundtrack for this book as if this actual story were made into a movie. Especially at the beginning, I imagined the title back of the beginning of the movie. Does anybody want to make a movie based on this graphic book by Mine Okubo?
This programmatic, short-movemented suite by Yukiko Nishimura is based on drawings and text of Miné Okubo from the memoir CITIZEN 13660. As well as this wonderful expression of art from the composer, educationally, this work offers a wide opportunity for teachable moments, critical conversation, and cross-curricular opportunities. ~Excelcia Music Publishing~
