The thirty-minute composition exposes a musical theme whose rampant changes are set in three movements that correspond to some of the famous eight triagrams of the 'I GING' (the Book of Changes): TSCHEN is the awakener, the thunder, to which the properties of the provocative, Violent, associated with impetuous growth. KAN as depth and abyss has the image of water, which corresponds to the moon and everything mysterious, difficult to understand and melancholic (logically this movement is based on a 12-tone series and a shifted, mirror-symmetrical rhythm). TOUEI is the pleasure, the friends, the happiness, the serenity, to which the image of the lakecorresponds. The changes do not want to imitate Asian models in terms of rhythm or melody, but rather remain in the language conventions of Western music in the sound material. The bridging to Chinese music succeeds above all through the use of the sheng (one of the oldest musical instruments) and the formal implementation of the given spiritual principles in tonal growth processes. Enjot Schneider.
