Program Note

In English

Withered Fields (2025)
Violin, cello and piano

Withered Fields is inspired by the Japanese master Basho’s death poem from 1694. The music inhabits a space between dream and reality, the living and the dead, where consciousness wanders along unknown paths.

sick on my journey,

my dreams go wandering

on this withered field

In Danish

Withered Fields (2025)
Violin, cello og klaver

Withered Fields er inspireret af den japanske mester Bashos sidste digt – hans dødsdigt fra 1694. Stemningen befinder sig et sted imellem drøm og virkelighed, det levende og det døde, hvor bevidstheden vandrer ad ukendte stier.

Jeg rejser

syg

Stille over

visne marker

Strejfer

mine drømme

Digte er gengivet fra Hans-Jørgen Nielsen: HAIKU – en introduktion og 150 gendigtninger.
