This is another song with 'Japanese vocal' plus 'the video'. Its title is "Jo-no-Uta"("Introductory Poem" in English) which is the name of the poem by Tohson Shimazaki. The poem is placed at the top of the poem collection titled "Waka-na-shu" as its introductory poem. I composed a song for this poem (the vocal version) and posted it to Youtube with the video I also created. You can find it at the following address.
https://youtu.be/_H2IDMD7hqoThe video comprises my photographs of 'Adachi Museum of Art' of which gardens have been ranked at No.1 in Japan for 13 years by the Journal of Japanese Gardening, a US magazine.
https://www.adachi-museum.or.jp/en/I have also attached the English translation of the poem (translated by me) together with the original Japanese poem to the video subtitles.
I also created its instrumental version which is shorter and more melodious than the vocal version, and uploaded it to Soundcloud.
