The composer aims to transform personal impressions of summer, the tactile sensations of a gentle breeze, and the fragrance of tree curtains into music through the unique tones and harmonies of the guzheng. The electronic music segment complements the guzheng performance, with the musician triggering it through a MIDI pedal during the performance. The electronic fragments either enhance the guzheng sound's ambiance, introduce new passages, or bring unexpected delights to the listener.
