This ensemble in two parts was written in Takao in the west of Kyoto in 1929. This composition consists of three movements plus coda. The second movement is written in rare five-eight time, which gives novel impression to listeners. It is of great interest that, although the score indicates five time of "three (3) plus two (2)", but it actually sounds to our ears "two (2) plus three (3)" counting from the up beat.
