11 Haikus, op. 95
Gerard Billaudot Editions presents composer Dimitri Tchesnokov's 11 Haikus, op. 95 d'apres Matsuo Basho - XVII s. for flute or baroque flute. Total duration of 5 minutes. Foreward from the composer: A Japanese haiku is a short, three-line poetic form consisting of 17 syllables arranged in a pattern of 5, 7, and 5 syllables respectively. Traditionally carved on stone, a haiku is to be read silently, thus opening the reader's mind to meditation. Using simple words, often referring to natural elements, a haiku generates spontaneous, fleeting impressions...These 11 haikus draw their inspiration from the works of Japanese poet Matsuo Basho (1644-1694). My intention was not to describe the often subtly elusive meaning of the poems but rather to translate into music the sensations felt while reading them.
