Program note

“Does eternal springtime exist?” I asked myself when I saw the sculpture Eternal Springtime by Auguste Rodin (1840‐1917). Spring comes, and summer follows. Fresh green is replaced by hot, blazing heat. Burning sun evaporates the luminous hues of magnolias, daffodils and crocus. Eternal spring seems inconceivable… yet, the sweetness and beauty of spring may exist in our hearts forever.

Eternal Springtime is the third one of my four seasons; First, Winter Sketches (2008) for String Quartet; and second, autumn leaves canvas (2010) for Solo Harp.
