A Journey Through Aesthetic Realms: A Benefit Concert of Celestial Reminiscence, Part 7 of 18

Thank you very much for having us here tonight. We are very honored to be here on this most joyous occasion. We’re going to continue with a song that I wrote recently, and it’s about the snow. I was very happy on the way over from the hotel; we got to see a little bit of snow today. We came from California, and we had no snow there, of course. And I was very happy to see a little bit of snow today on the way over to the concert. This song is called “Snow Dance.”

Thank you very much. We’re going to continue with a song that was on an album I did in 1990. And this is an example of some kinds of music that I like to put together sometimes, different kinds of music. This one turned out to be kind of Arabian Bossa Nova. It’s called “The Rug Merchant.” Thank you.

Again, thank you for being with us on this wonderful evening. I wrote a song that seems proper to dedicate to the Lady responsible for this evening, Suma [Supreme Master] Ching Hai. This is called “Heart of Spring,” dedicated to You.
