Summer night transforms to daybreak [naviarhaiku479]

My improvisation inspired by this week's haiku by Ryōkan Taigu (1758-1831). Played on a 6-string fretless bass guitar, plus effects: GuitarRig 6 and Frostbite2. Recorded in one take in Reaper, and mastered with CloudBounce.

Among the four great masters of Japanese haiku, Kobayashi Issa was the most prolific: during his lifetime he wrote over 20,000 haiku, hundreds of tanka, and several haibun. If you want to find out more about this prolific author I suggest you check out this database of his haiku.
