Kenneth Babb - Program Notes and mp3 link - The elements in this sound texture were created from audio processing of the composer’s own voice speaking the phrase “Spring Rain.” The Haiku reference is metaphorical; the larger sound form having been created from the processing of smaller phonetic components of the phrase - - particles which are assembled into a balanced larger whole. A simple statement of mood, brief and complete in itself.
