Elegy#1: A Little of the Sea
Elegy of a man who grasps at the air
CAVEnsemble
This work is inspired by Zen monks and Haiku poetic tradition of writing their last words on the edge of death, Elegy # 1: “A little of the Sea” is a death poem that reflects the ambiguous and ephemeral nature of men’s existence; an elegy as a farewell to life and a salute to death.
