Product Description

Eleven variations on the Japanese folk song "The moon over the ruined castle" for solo flute.

Kōjō no Tsuki () is a deeply moving song about the passage of time and the transience of human power. The four stanzas unfolds as a mirror of human history and experience:
Written at the beginning of the 20th century, a period of great social upheaval, the song reflects the decline of old orders and the fading splendor of court life. Amidst all this change, the moon remains a constant source of lighta symbol of the imperishable nature of memory and nature.

This product was created by a member of ArrangeMe, Hal Leonard's global self-publishing community of independent composers, arrangers, and songwriters.
