"harvest moon" is the first movement of my choral set, Three Basho Haiku. I was drawn to these three haiku by their emotional content and striking natural imagery. "harvest moon" conjures the image of a large, orange moon rising in the autumn sky. Thanks to my Uncle Ken and Aunt Yoko for helping me with the translations.
Three Basho Haiku is the winner of the 2021 Iowa Composers Forum/Iowa Choral Director's Association Composition Competition. It is a Project Encore selection. |
Text by Matsuo Basho (1644-1694), English translations by Lisa Neher with the assistance of Ken Harvey and Yoko Yamada.
