A Fragrant Breeze Is Blowing From China Over These Seven Strings ( Naviarhaiku 341 )

a fragrant breeze
is blowing from China 
over these seven strings

naviarhaiku341: a fragrant breeze

I was mad at the world…and then I let it go. 
This song represents the process of recognizing an automatic negative thought and eliminating it mindfully.

Ends With Hope

Ends with Hope (NaviarHaiku341)

July 19, 2020.

the main material for my piece was performed by Charlie Huang. his original performance and accompanying info can be found here:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Guqin-Yangguan_Sandie.ogg

since the Naviar Haiku music project works at the intersection of tradition and innovation, i hope my contribution is seen as an extension, rather than a blasphemy, lol. (the "wind instrument" is an addition to the multi-tracked and processed guygin.)

A fragrant breeze

[trans. Fumiko Yamamoto]

 

Tagami Kikusha (1753-1826)  was a Japanese multi-disciplinary artist and Buddhist nun, mostly known  as a poet, painter, calligrapher and tea practitioner.

This haiku was written when she visited the temple Hooryuuji in Nara, in 1812, and was allowed to play an ancient Chinese guqin.
