Circulating Ocean

for orchestra
orchestra
For some years, I have been writing, and will continue to write, works on the theme of 'Ocean'. I am attempting to express in sound the flow and change of water by apprehending sound as water. Toshio Hosokawa

Description

In view of the names of the six movements of my symphonic works, it seems, at first glance, like a musical illustration of the eternal cycle of the water: Mist rising from the sea, clouds forming, rain falling down to earth. But Circulating Ocean is more than programme music, more than a one-dimensional description of nature – the cycle of the element of water is a symbol of the cycle of human life, of our attachment to nature, of our striving for emptiness, removal of boundaries and perfection. Toshio Hosokawa
