Five States of Change: Wood
W.M. Sobieska
- Instrumentation: Bass Solo — for any solo instrument, bass clef
- Wuxing:
In terms of the human life cycle,
wood is associated with early childhood:
from birth to the age of twelve years.
It is charming in character, and signifies youth and vitality.
The narrative, graceful, simple, and humorous character of this piece
honors the altruistic capacity of wood
and its unique ability to create a special, magical world.
Additional allusions traditionally include springtime, the East,
and the colors green & blue.
