Water is heard before the pavilion is seen. Morning, evening and seasons turn a path into sustained attention.

Wine offers a pause; the landscape unfolds.

Creative direction: classical landscape song · three-beat motion and verbal breathingWhat do these music words mean? ↓

The opening narrows from surrounding hills to a pavilion beside water, then asks who built and named it. Once wine ceases to be the point, dawn, returning clouds and seasons widen the view again. Follow that contraction and expansion of attention.

The brief asks for a warm female voice and supple, singing phrases in light three-beat motion. Singing broadly does not require equally prolonged syllables: follow punctuation and melodic connection. An ambiguous instrument spelling in the brief is not silently turned into a confirmed instrument.

Read the lyrics
環滁皆山也。 其西南諸峯、林壑尤美。 望之蔚然而深秀者、琅琊也。 山行六七里、漸聞水聲潺潺、而瀉出於兩峯之間者、釀泉也。 峯回路轉、有亭翼然、臨於泉上者、醉翁亭也。 作亭者誰、山之僧曰智仙也。 名之者誰、太守自謂也。 太守與客來飲於此、飲少輒醉、而年又最高、故自號曰醉翁也。 醉翁之意不在酒、在乎山水之間也。 山水之樂、得之心而寓之酒也。 若夫日出而林霏開、雲歸而巖穴暝、晦明變化者、山間之朝暮也。 野芳發而幽香、佳木秀而繁陰、風霜高潔、水落而石出者、山間之四時也。 朝而往、暮而歸。 四時之景不同、而樂亦無窮也。
