Shakuhachi : Robert Herr | |
Kiyomizudera is a temple, snuggled against the hillside in eastern Kyoto, dedicated to the 11-headed kannon, or goddess of mercy. Kiyomizu no Kyoku (Melody of Kiyomizu) was inspired by the beauty of the open-air veranda supported by its massive trestle of large timbers and the summer buzz of cicadas mingling with the sounds of a nearby waterfall.
