Six Japanese Songs
By John Craton
Voice and piano Soprano voice, piano - Advanced

Item Number: WF.WM702
This cycle utilizes short Japanese texts translated into English. The work is composed in a near avant-garde style that is something of a departure from the composer's more typical English pastoralism. In what might be termed neo-impressionism, these works are almost onomatopoeic, representnig a form of "nature music" which seeks to capture the essence of the haiku -- short, fleeting images impressed upon the listener's consciousness.
