In composing this suite, Ko MATSUSHITA was strongly influenced by unaccompanied Hungarian and Scandinavian works for choirs. The composer hopes his work could assist choirs to develop their listening skills through singing this suite. "Life Defends" was selected in 1995 as one of the compulsory works in 48th National Choral Competition.
