Nishimura - Lake Superior Suite: IV. Neys

from Together Apart by UPEI Wind Symphony

/

about

4. Neys Provincial Park, a former WWII prisoner of war camp and processing camp for interned Japanese-Canadians, has a somewhat dark history. Much of the natural growth forest was cut down to build the POW camp, and trees were later re-planted in rows. Slow and steady melodic fragments represent the solemn voices of this beautiful but remote location, while the gradual build toward the climax evokes feelings of destruction, anguish, and yearning for peace. Neys is dedicated with love to the composer’s grandparents.
