Finding Satsu

A seriousness that reflects the opening theme is portrayed in this piece. The cello and oboe in this piece really create a feeling of sadness that is perfect for reflecting the emotions of Chiyo while she searches through the Hanamachi to find her sister. It also reflects the tragedy of Satsu's existence as a prostitute in the Tatsuyo district of the Hanamachi.
