About
Inspired by the Sutra of the Great Vows of Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva, this is an Electro-Acoustic piece of music meant to create an enigmatic and minimalist sound-world which is ever evolving. Throughout the piece there is a constant but subtle change in mood, achieved by large washes of sound. The source material is both from live recordings and synthetic productions, manipulated mostly live, in order to generate an organic sound which never exactly repeats itself.
Commissioned note
Original piece of music composed in 2006, revision commissioned by Julia Chu for her 'Ksitigarbha Sutra Chant' CD in 2009
