Ahmad Shiddiqi - Overture Pastorale

2014-11-08 9 Dailymotion

(dedicated to Mr. Seiji Ozawa, a great Japanese conductor)

fish
birds
beasts
insects

the way plants grow
penetrated to their essential
a positively divine understanding
May Heaven, that grants me long life

flowers are blossoming in Spring gardens
butterflies and bees are dancing around
voice of rivers and wind are gorgeous
May Heaven, that grants me love

branches of trees
leaves of grass
moonlight
the sun

(inspired by Katsushika Hokusai's Red Fuji)

Ahmad Shiddiqi
