[Prajna Paramita Sonata]

[tueminh]

Hey! Do you know if there is any classical Buddhist composer, writing
meditative sonatas or symphonies? Hmm Prajna Paramita Sonata sounds
cool... As well as Paranirvana Symphony No. 40!

You should give it a shot :) there are few korean compositions of the heart sutra that are really moving.

Wow I was wondering how one can incorporate the idea of impermanent
into music, especially Western-style music :) That requires both
compositional skills and an whole understanding of very subtle
concepts

For example, Japanese culture is able to successfully integrate the
ideas of impermanence into their arts :) for me, as a non-Japanese, I
have thought that Japanese arts are both elegant and fragile in some
senses, but now I believe that this impression is intentional.

It's worth noting that if you hit "reply" to an email sent to the
google group list, it always sends to the whole list and makes it look
like you're emailing the whole list. Nobody can tell who a given
email was supposed to be in response to. Thus, I think Tenzin
probably didn't mean to direct his email to every person on the
list...
