palan ja hukun --
lintuja veden yllä,
luomilla sarastus. --
viileä sointuva,
hopea virtaa sääriä,
käsiä pitkin. --
otsasi, järvi:
mietteitä, tyyni.
hypähtää taimen.
valoja veden pinnassa,
sieluja purjehtii. --
minkä näin ja sanoin
aurinko, valkeus pyyhkii.”

my dear friend
that first part of the three music pieces
(that cello!)
brought tears into my eyes
so beautiful
and him telling a story
that ever since 1912 it is playing
continue
all together

I enjoyed very much
thank you!

Thank you so so much for introducing me to Gavin Bryars. What an artistic force. I will be going back to view all of the videos and see more of his work.
At the beginning of the first video I was touched to see the cymbal (is that the name?) being lowered into water as it was being played. It really touched me.
This post is wonderful to read and think about. Love continues to grow...

immersed in color and tones.
or in the past.
can be so sad. and so beautiful!
Dear Ritva,
thank you very much for introducing Gavin Bryars. His music and philosophy is not facile... but its really profound. Like underwater life.
His music acts in the unconscious.
Your wallpaper of photos of your father with baton... just like a colourful ocean.
The reflection of the CD like on a surface of water.
Wow, on different levels a great post,
thank you!
Love,
Ariane.

dear queen of light, i'm commenting before listening, (reading that patrice had to cry i know what will happen to me too;)) already love your colors and thoughts, i always do! love, julia
dear Ritva, on this grey and rainy morning i took time to watch all three videos and was very moved and enchanted by Gavin Bryars music as well as by his commenting and telling. Then i went back to your'wallpaper' and it all together felt really good and wonderful,an image of colour and sound that will stay with me the rest of the day and probably longer, thanks.
I love what you did here! Simply great and unexpected!
Ritva, thank you for an amazing time here!
I cannot here them now...but can imagine...
Love tha colour game...

octavioa ilman ei voi olla. onko suuri lasi tuttu sulle? analyysi duchampin tuotannosta? omani on lähes puhkikulunut :)
