Dai Fujikura - Perpetual Spring for clarinet and string quartet by Dai Fujikura

about

I was researching the Portland Japanese Garden online, looking at photos and their tweets, and it is beautiful. I was yet again to focus on my inspiration from nature.

“Perpetual Spring” is organic. The clarinet is melting into the string quartet, and the strings are extending their "stems" to wrap around the clarinet anywhere the clarinet moves….as the amazing thing about nature, the roots and stems of trees, they are wrapping around, breaking through the asphalt roads, concrete walls. Every time I see the power of nature, I feel that we should never underestimate power of "quiet" nature. This piece is about “framing the nature”. --Dai Fujikura
