Completed in August 2006 in Taipei, this concerto draws its inspiration from the flowing rivers and verdant forests of Taiwan, which are directly associated with the indigenous people's surroundings. Flowing water, symbolizing movement and life, forms the primary motif of the first and third movements. The forest brings to mind wood and the marimba; thus, the marimba's resonant tones and the pizzicato strings create the primary sonic elements in these movements. The second movement is an artistic response to the beautiful voices and songs of the indigenous people, celebrating their connection to the forest and the unique beauty of their musical traditions.
Marimba: Chia-hsin Dai
Amy Chang conducts the National Taiwan Symphony Orchestra.

When Silent Night Has Closed Her Eyes It Is A Breezy Jasmine - Bower - #3953 By Chair House 241010

Electric guitar, electric bass, soundscapes (some synth washes but mostly a reversed guitar track)
Related to this track https://soundcloud.com/daniel-diaz/tempest (that focuses more on the reverse guitar track from the same session)

This track "Down Together" was finished tweaked and mixed today inspired by this haiku by Miura Chora (1729-1780):
Stillness:
The sound of Petals
Sifting down together"

Down Together (naviarhaiku571)

Your play is hard to see
A curiosity
I get this feeling that you’ve only started
I wasn’t asking for
Some kind of all out war
That ain’t the way to treat the tender hearted
Oh, baby, baby, baby
Why you always taking me down

I know it’s one and done
A dark and setting sun
And I’m okay if that’s the page we’re turning
But, baby, let it be
I’m not your enemy
You may be testing me, but girl I’m learning
Oh, baby, baby
Why you always taking me down

I opened up my heart
You tore it all apart
And then you walked away
Just when I’m good to go
You’re back to let me know
That I’m the one to blame
Why you always taking me down

You tell our friends to no end I’m a lost cause
How you can’t stand I’m not the man you thought I was
I never gave you what you say was ever good love
How you feel so betrayed 
All this time 
Was I so blind to think you’d ever change
