Yuki 雪

about

I'm writing a lot for jazz piano trio these days! This is one such piece: "Yuki". I love how piano and double bass dance together here. And, of course, I adore percussion, which fuels the dance with rhythm. "Let the dance begins!" ^_^
Here I'm particularly happy with the double bass part: I had it play slightly off key occasionally, and this creates a nice contrast with the "straight" piano (well, it's actually a grand XD)

Oh and as you may know already, "Yuki" means "snow" in Japanese, when written as "雪" ^_^

The logo is Flowers of a Hundred Worlds (Momoyogusa): Swirling Snow (Tomoe no yuki), by Kamisaka Sekka (Japanese, 1866–1942),
published about 110 years ago.
The Internet Archive page (archive.org/details/clevelandart-1988.23.1.17-flowers-of-a-hundred)
tells that

"This print from a set of three woodblock printed albums displays the graphic design prowess of Kamisaka Sekka. The images were first distributed one by one to subscribers to the series but later were reissued in bound form, like this book, for mass consumers. Each print features a vignette taken from nature or Japanese literature. Many of the scenes have a long history in Japan, originating in the 900s or 1000s and having been interpreted by all manner of artists since that time. Sekka’s selections hew closely to precedents from the Rinpa style originated by painter Tawaraya Sōtatsu (c. 1570–c. 1640) and calligrapher Hon’ami Kōetsu (1558–1637)."

"Eidon put ook uit mathrock, minimal music, jazz, etnische muziek... Hij zou perfect passen als support van Gogo Penguin, Battles of Dijf Sanders en kan op termijn misschien wel een plaats veroveren op zowel Rock Werchter als Gent Jazz of Couleur Café. Benieuwd hoe hij dit live brengt"
