Azure Swimnishina
This song powerfully conveys the many encounters and farewells we experience throughout life, along with the emotions that come with them.
The somewhat floating quality of the sounds that appear at the beginning evokes looking back on memories spent with friends and the loneliness of the partings that lie ahead.
The way it develops from there into a bold, grand sound is striking as well, conveying a desperate struggle to move forward.
By portraying both the sadness of farewell and the determination to press on at the same time—and overlapping with the music’s floating feel—the piece seems to express an instability of emotion.
