I've never been one to shed tears, but there's something about songs like these, speaking without the use of words, expressing emotions too complex to sum up in a sentence. This type of music always brings me to tears.

Profound music from an extraordinary artist and individual that left us too soon. Godspeed Maestro and may every heartfelt musical note that graced your canvas of life surround and guide you in the next chapter of your existence.🌹

Sakamoto mentioned that this is connected to Tartakovsky's film, "Solaris, " which features Bach's Chorale Prelude in F, "Ich ruf zu dir, Herr Jesu Christ, ' BWV 647). Certainly his synth version of the chorale he wrote has a similar treatment to what Tartakovsky had in his comforting film. Interesting, the text of the Bach chorale is "I call to you, Lord Jesus Christ, " and implores God to be merciful and kind in difficult straits. But this chorale here sounds like a more mournful version of Brahms' treatment of "Soul, Adorn Thyself with Gladness." As much of a musicologist Sakamoto was (just watch his Schola videos from NHK) I wonder if Sakamoto was encoding anything about faith and hope for the future in this music, when he was staring down his own mortality...as we must confront ours. How I miss this wonderful composer!
