DC² Duo David Colwell, violin Durval Cesetti, piano Recorded live at "Espaço Guiomar Novaes", Rio de Janeiro, August 8th 2019, with the support of the Embassy of Canada in Brazil. Work inspired by poems by Li Bai (701-762): Spring (Primavera) 燕草如碧絲， 秦桑低綠枝。 當君懷歸日， 是妾斷腸時。 春風不相識， 何事入羅幃? The grasses of Yan are like jade threads, The mulberry trees of Qin have low, green branches. The day you think of returning home, my heart is already broken. One does not know the spring breeze, so why does it enter my bed curtains? Translation from: https://eastasiastudent.net/china/classical/li-bai-chun-si/ Summer 鏡湖三百里 菡萏發荷花 五月西施采 人看隘若耶 回舟不待月 歸去越王家 Mirror Lake spans three hundred miles And the lotus buds begin to bloom: Its May and Xishi is gathering them So many people watch, admire — narrowing the Ruoye river Her boat circles back before the moon has come out And on returning, she's off to the Palace of Yue. Translation from: https://www.poetrynook.com/poem/member/li-bais-midnight-song-four-seasons-summer-300-tang-poems-40 Autumn 長 安 一 片 月 萬 戶 擣 衣 聲 秋 風 吹 不 盡 總 是 玉 關 情 何 日 平 胡 虜 良 人 罷 遠 征 Over Chang'an, shines a slice of moon and Ten thousand wives can be heard washing clothes An autumn wind blows without end Carrying my heart to the Jade Gate When will peace come to the Hu Lu And my husband return from his long journey? Translation from: https://100tangpoems.wordpress.com/2017/12/07/song-of-an-autumn-midnight-li-bai/ Winter 明朝驛使發 素手抽針冷 一夜絮征袍 那堪把剪刀 裁縫寄遠道 幾日到臨洮 "The messenger rides", she's told, "at first light" So, she sews a warrior’s cloak throughout the night Her fingers tired, the needle cold, How can one hold the scissors tight? Now the coat is done, she sends it away, and says, "How many days to Lintao?" Translation from: https://100tangpoems.wordpress.com/2018/12/29/li-bai-ballad-of-four-seasons-winter/
