Grain in Ear
— The nightingale crows the green willow, the bright moon wakes up the sky
In the twenty-four solar terms, Xiao Man is a model of the blending of natural laws and wisdom in life.
Small full, not only marks the beginning of the crop full but not fully mature state, but also implies a moderate, humble and harmonious philosophy of life-small to full, is complete.
The accompaniment of the main melody of the dulcimer in the first paragraph of “Xiao Man” is two different synthesizer sequences, followed by the melody of the acoustic guitar, which produces a nostalgic texture in the mutual reflection of the dulcimer and the synthesizer. As if on a summer afternoon, I caught a glimpse of an old thing by chance, reflecting a soft and slightly mottled light and shadow in the sun, which made people feel deeply.
Entering the second paragraph, the addition of the string quartet enriches the emotional color of the music. The strings match the synth motivation and ask and answer with the acoustic guitar. This kind of interaction, like the breeze of early summer, brings a touch of coolness and freshness, and is also a profound understanding of the circulation of time and the rhythm of life.
小满
——夜莺啼绿柳，皓月醒长空
在二十四节气中，小满是自然法则与人生智慧交融的典范。
小满，不仅标志着农作物开始饱满但未完全成熟的状态，更寓意着一种适度、谦逊与和谐的人生哲学——小得盈满，方是圆满。
《小满》第一段扬琴主旋律的伴奏，是两条不同的合成器音序，紧接着木吉他的旋律响起，与扬琴、合成器在相互辉映中产生一种怀旧的质感。仿佛夏日午后，偶然瞥见一件旧物，在阳光下反射出柔和而略带斑驳的光影，让人心生感慨。
进入第二段，弦乐四重奏的加入丰富了乐曲的情感色彩。弦乐配合着合成器动机，与木吉他一问一答。这种交互，宛如初夏的微风轻拂枝叶，带来一丝凉爽与清新，同时也是对时间流转、生命律动的深刻感悟。
