680160587094. 8.5 x 11
inches. Poem by Du Fu
(712-770 in Tang
Dynasty). It's like
the welcome rain on a
quiet spring night that
nurtures the budding
seeds, our new society is
pushing us forward to the
new future. This music
reflects the scenes and
the expression according
to the meaning of the
poem when it's being
unfolded line by line.
Although the tempo is set
60-70 quarter notes per
minute throughout (played
vividly, never slow
down), the tension is
being built up from the
quiet background in the
beginning, to the
sustained climax towards
the end. The musical
image in Rehersal A and B
(measures 1 - 41)
represents the first four
lines of the poem. The
woodwind instruments
response to the rustling
of fast moving notes on
muted string triplets,
decorated by occasional
strokes produced by
metallic string sound and
high piano gestures. The
music in Rehersal C and D
(measures 42-87)
represents the next two
lines of the poem. It's
so dark, a little light
in the boat is shimmering
on the lake... The
breathy key slaps on the
flute creates a
mysterious atmosphere, in
a dialogue with other
instruments. The cello
glissandi recite the poem
in the tone of Mandarin,
echoed by the string
harmonics. The music in
Rehersal E, F, G (m 88 -
161) is a toccata,
starting with the piano,
which builds up a big
shape, to reach the
climax in m. 116, and
keeps the vivid scene
towards the coda
(Rehersal H, m. 162 - the
end), which stands on the
energetic peak at the end
of the
piece. Commissioned by
the Music From Copland
House ensemble, supported
by a grant from the
NYSCA’s
Composer’s
Commissions program in
2002, my mixed ensemble
piece Happy Rain on a
Spring Night is written
for all five instruments
in the ensemble: flute,
clarinet, violin, cello
and piano, and premiered
on Oct. 18, 2004, at
Merkin Hall in New York.
 The musical
imagination came from an
ancient Chinese poem with
the same title, written
by Du Fu (712-770) in the
Tang Dynasty. Happy
Rain on a Spring Nightby
Du Fu (712-770 in the
Tang Dynasty)Â Happy
rain comes in time,When
spring is in its
prime.With night breeze
it will fall,And quietly
moisten all.Clouds darken
wild roads,Light
brightens a little
boat.Saturated at
dawn,With flowers
blooming the
town. (English
translation by Chen Yi
from the original poem in
Chinese) It’s
like the welcome rain on
a quiet spring night that
nurtures the budding
seeds; our new society is
pushing us forward to the
new future. Â The music
reflects the scenes and
the expression according
to the meaning of the
poem when it’s
being unfolded line by
line. Â Although the
tempo is set 60-70
quarter notes per minute
throughout (played
vividly, never slowing
down), the tension is
being built up from the
quiet background in the
beginning, to the
sustained climax towards
the end. The musical
image in Rehearsal A and
B (measures 1-41)
represents the first four
lines of the poem.
 The woodwind
instruments respond to
the rustling of fast
moving notes on muted
string triplets,
decorated by occasional
strokes produced by
metallic string sound and
high piano gestures.
 The music in
Rehearsal C and D
(measures 42-87)
represents the next two
lines of the poem.
 It’s so dark,
a little light in the
boat is shimmering on the
lake... Â The breathy
key slaps on the flute
create a mysterious
atmosphere, in a dialogue
with other instruments.
 The cello glissandi
recite the poem in the
tone of Mandarin, echoed
by the string harmonics.
 The music in
Rehearsal E, F and G (m
88-161) is a toccata,
starting with the piano,
which builds up a big
shape, to reach the
climax in m. 116, and
keeps the vivid scene
towards the coda
(Rehearsal H, m.
162-192), which stands on
the energetic peak at the
end of the
piece. According to
the principle of the
Golden Section, I have
constructed the piece
with two large parts (m.
1-115 and m. 116-192).
 The GS falls onto the
beginning of the climax
section of the piece,
which is exciting and
loud. Â All
subdivisions of the
structures coincide with
the numbers of
proportions based on the
GS principle. Â The
music has textures
changed according to the
proportional arrangement
throughout the
piece. First Part (m.
1-115, total 115
measures), including two
sectionsSection I (m.

English. Fresh from
the loss of his oldest
daughter Maria Mahler,
and knowing he had a
serious heart condition,
Gustav Mahler (1860-1911)
crafted Das Lied von der
Erde (The Song of the
Earth) in the years 1908
and 1909. The first
performance took place on
November 20, 1911 at the
Tonhalle in Munich,
conducted by Bruno
Walter. It encompasses
six settings of old
Chinese poems, four of
them by the Tang Dynasty
poet Li Bai, loosely
translated into German by
Hans Bethge. Conscious of
his own mortality, Mahler
filled his orchestral
song cycle with themes of
resignation, fading
beauty, and autumn
loneliness. The last
song, roughly the same
length as the previous
five movements combined,
serves as a sprawling,
yet deeply personal
farewell to both love and
life. Instrumentation:
