A Young Man with Downcast Eyes

The song was composed while Ko Matsushita studied abroad in Hungary. The compositional style of this piece in the form of a six-part mixed chorus is influenced by various modern European choral works. The functional structures of composition by Hungarian composers and the excellent harmonic structures based on the overtones of Northern European choral music fascinated the composer very much. This piece is full of the composer's memories of twenty years ago and people can get a sense of the beautiful town Budapest.
