If we interpret the "i---" as the beginning of the word "Infinite," the search points directly to Hymn to the Infinite Sky . This piece, while not explicitly about birds, deals with the domain of flight—the sky—and is one of the most sought-after PDFs in the wind ensemble community.

The line between an insect and a bird in program music is often blurred by the sensation of flight. Both creatures defy gravity. Musicians searching for a piece about "flying creatures" by Mashima often default to "Birds." Furthermore, the frantic, scherzo-like tempo of the middle section resembles the frantic chirping of birds rather than the silent flight of a butterfly.

A powerful finale based on the legendary bird, representing hope and a strong will for the future.

Toshio Mashima (2008), a prominent Japanese composer known for his fusion of classical and jazz elements in wind music.
