Hiyoku: For Two Clarinets

Meer over het boek

Exploring themes of eternal love, "Hiyoku" draws inspiration from the ancient Chinese poet Bai Juyi and is enriched by Japanese literary traditions. The piece was first performed in 2001 in Amsterdam by renowned musicians Charles Neidich and Ayako Oshima, who later recorded it for Bridge Records. The title evokes the image of two birds flying together, symbolizing a deep, enduring connection.
