Art Expressed in Music – Hokusai's Immortality

Painting: The Inume Pass in Kai Province from the series Thirty-six Views of Mount Fuji 
Katsushika Hokusa.(1760 –1849), known simply as Hokusai, was a Japanese ukiyo-e artist of the Edo period, active as a painter and printmaker. He is best known for the woodblock print series Thirty-Six Views of Mount Fuji, which includes the iconic print The Great Wave of Kanagawa,  In addition to his woodblock ukiyo-e prints, Hokusai worked in a variety of mediums including painting and book illustration. Starting as a young child, he continued working and improving his style until his death, at 88. In a long and successful career, Hokusai produced over 30,000 paintings, sketches, woodblock prints, and images for picture books in total. Innovative in his compositions and exceptional in his drawing technique, Hokusai is considered one of the greatest masters in the history of art.  At the age of seventy-five Hokusai defiantly referred to himself as ‘the old man mad about painting” as he railed against his mortality by declaring that he would live past 100 years and in so doing, achieve artistic immortality. “From the age of six I had a penchant for copying the forms of things, and from about fifty, my pictures were frequently published; but until the age of seventy, nothing that I drew was worthy of notice. At seventy-three years, I was somewhat able to fathom the growth of plants and trees, and the structure of birds, animals, insects, and fish. Thus when I reach eighty years, I hope to have made increasing progress, and at ninety to see further into the underlying principles of things, so that at one hundred years I will have achieved a divine state in my art, and at one hundred and ten, every dot and every stroke will be as though alive.” Told by Gakyo Rojin Manji (Old Man Mad About Painting).

Wild Fire

Mumford and Sons -  I'm On Fire (Bruce Springsteen cover)

(Danish lyrics) A friend of mine, Henrik Lichtenberg Hansen wrote this poem
I really loved it, so I gave it a try making it into a song. 

Livet er en landevej
krydset er et valg
bilen er dit sande jeg
gemt i glat metal

Svært at fange med det blotte
øje, men du er speciel
ingen højglans, lir og flotte
alufælge - bar' dig selv !

Du har været gennem pløre
regnvejrsnætter, sne og slud
kørt hvor ingen burde køre
tanken tom og tanken ud

Du brød hver en færdselslov
og krydsed' krydsets valg
lod dig aldrig syne og
var altid sat til salg

Du faldt så afgrundsdybt befriet
da vejen svinged' uden dig
dit ekko rev sig fri af liget,
det hamrer stadig gennem mig :

"Frygten kæmper mod dit mod
vejen er kun din
hele verden for din fod
drømmen er benzin"

Drømmen er benzin (danish lyrics by H. Lichtenberg)

I wrote part of this song many years ago. Yesterday I found it among some old stuff, and took a new liking to it, so I changed the style (originally it was very 'rock') and I re-wrote and finished the lyrics.

Trust

I am a pianist and composer interested in writing music for vocalists searching for a song, game- & film music. I compose pieces in all genres for example  jazz, latin, fusion, prog-rock, electronic  and many more. All my uploads are original compositions - written, performed & recorded by myself in my tiny home studio.
