about

The first song I ever wrote on the piano, I did not grow up with a piano I had no access to one until a new family moved into my neighborhood. This melody came through me as i sat at their piano, all black keys. I was 15. I remembered this song throughout time; perhaps it remembered me. In any case, I named it 'Yangtze Elm' right then. I don't recall why i knew of the Yangtze river then. Many years later, I got to visit that river in the surreal and vast Chongqing region.The density of humanity there shocked my nervous system. The people and the buckwheat tea there soothed me. A simple and sturdy melody. You can set it against many different sonic back paintings and it retains it's identity. Melodies are living things.
