My beloved Paris is full of delightful things. I expressed these scenes through sound.
I. On the Batobus on the Seine River
The Batobus, literally meaning 'boat-bus,' is a relatively small sightseeing boat. Cruising the Seine River on this boat allows one to see many wonderful buildings such as the Louvre Museum, Notre Dame Cathedral, and the Eiffel Tower. This movement expresses the excitement of such an experience.
II. Omelette at a Cafe
Cafe omelettes are not as neatly shaped as the leaf-shaped omelettes in Japan; they are often burnt and misshapen. Yet, they are very delicious. Eating an omelette while sipping white wine and watching passersby makes one feel like a true Parisian. This movement expresses such an atmosphere.
III. Graffiti
Paris is filled with graffiti everywhere. It ranges from the beautiful to the grotesque, encompassing everything imaginable. However, all of it is highly accomplished and constitutes wonderful art. This movement expresses such a mysterious world.
