Urban Beat was commissioned by Tokyo Wind Harmony Orchestra. This work contains two parts.The first part is a fast tempo reminiscent of the urban highway, includes trumpet and alto saxophone solos (written but it's good for improvisation). The second part is a pop ballad that start with tenor saxophone's solo, and it gets excited gradually. After this, the first part appears again and head to the end. The introduction of this work is written in 5/4.
