My personal top ten greatest moments in this piece: Nº 10 - The trills in the strings at 12:53. Nº 9 - The harmonic glissandi in the strings at 2:27. Nº 8 - The chord in the strings that gradually builds up at 0:03. Nº 7 - The introduction of the bowl gongs followed by the bird songs played by the woodwinds at 1:05. Nº 6 - The extended string techniques at 4:41. Nº 5 - The bird songs played by the woodwinds at 7:49. Nº 4 - The swirling patterns in the woodwinds at 13:10. Nº 3 - The alto flute solo and the underlying orchestral accompaniment at 10:58. Nº 2 - The build up leading to the climax at 16:57. Nº 1 - The magnificent climax at 17:56.
Yet again transported beyond the realm of this earth and its problems. Flying with the birds in the heavens and enjoying the trip. Pity it’s so short, just landed again with a bump! Track is over.
A unique piece of its kind, with angels and birds, signed by a great master of classical music who deserves to be finally discovered and played all over the world like Takemitsu or Ravel.
Une pièce unique en son genre, peuplée d'anges et d'oiseaux, signée par un grand maître de la musique classique qui méritait tellement d'être enfin découvert et joué partout dans le monde comme Takemitsu ou Ravel.
The scattered flute progression @ 1:11 really reminds of the World Of Warcraft OST for Tempest Keep; the same scattered flute progression. His pieces seem fantastical (Like what you would see in a game) but very formal at the same time.
Yoshimatsu is probably one of the most underrated composers of our generation. BTW could someone tell me who the artist or at least what the name of the painting is? It's beautiful, full of life and yet has a melancholic touch...
I believe this composer is underrated and needs to be discovered by a wider audience
Thanks to Twoset Violin, I am here now and I love this composer.
I wholeheartedly agree w/you on that sentiment!

What an under-appreciated work of absolute beauty.
Greetings, from a fellow Daniel C!
Goes beyond the simple hearing sense. Into an overwhelming sense of wonder.

Listen this music is to understand that materialism is a madness... Listen as the magic and beauty have subtle and soothing voices !

Ravel needs to hear this, bring him back to life
the ad in the middle was really relaxing, thanks.
Hi, did find you the artist since your commentary?
Gregory Stuart: "wider" audiences will never appreciate music like this.
Jeri your right ! His music is not getting acceptance by the ultra modernist composers as well oh well!
Beautiful and enchanting, evoking a journey of visual images that takes you with the birds.

If you can find a seller then credit of the Artwork should be given. Just how one might do that over the web IDK.
the artist's name is Qin Tianzhu
Wonderful, marvelous...
Amazing!!!!

Incredible
Social awakening of the birds... What are they all chirping about, does anybody know. :)
(Life)
Des compositions à la fois classiques et étrangement neuves...
precioso
What is the name of the painting? It is a perfect choice for the music.
My brother is the main bird among all birds.
Who is the images' artist?
Hi, did you find the name of the artist finally?
