Description

I was inspired to write these two pieces from a visit to Japan some years ago. They are just a little snapshot of so many exquisite memories of such a beautiful country. The wistful elegance of cranes in the wilderness wandering on a lake’s edge is contrasted with the dynamic and athletic movements of samurais in action. The use of the Japanese scale, Hirajōshi and other pentatonic scales are used frequently throughout the set.
