    👏THIS 👏FREAKING 👏GUY
    I knew I had to check out Lou Harrison after hearing about his American Gamelan work and also just how he's related to the other great composers of the time, but I didn't expect this to be such a coalesce of everything that I absolutely adore in music! And the freaking ESPERANTO!

    Wish I had met him....he was around when I was in college...and after all that time, I now make instruments from my ancient Mexican heritage...but it was music like Lou Harrison, Harry Partch later UAKTI and stayed in my memory and I'm sure it influenced me to follow my path....beautiful work this is. People look up a composer from Mexico that hardly anyone knows, Julian Carrillo, who back in 1895 started to experiment with 13 tones (before Arnold!!!) forming his SONIDO 13 (The 13th Sound)...he made his own crazy microtonal instruments too! Listen to "Balbuceos"!
    I love this work of Lou Harrison, absolutely spell binding!!!!

    I just read about this man in Elsa Gidlow's autobiography, Elsa: I Come With My Songs, and so decided to find some of his music to listen to. It is utterly beautiful marvelously blending aspects of Western and Eastern music in a most brilliantly heart-touching way.

    La Koro-Sutro

    (Lyrics taken from a reddit post, link on the comment below). The lyric is actually a Buddhist prayer/mantra called the "Prajna Paramitha".
    Kunsonoro Kaj Gloro
    Om. Gloron al la Beata Saĝo Pluirinta.
    I.
    La Avalokiteŝvara nobla, Bodhisatvo, moviĝinte en praktiko de la Saĝo Pluirinta, vidis ke malplenas laŭnature la Kvin Agregatoj.
    II.
    Jen, ho Ŝariputro, form' malplenas, kaj malpleno formas mem; malplen' je formo ne disiĝas, formo ne disiĝas je malpleno. Kio formas ajn, malplenas tio; kio ajn malplenas, formas tio. Same sento kaj percepto, la impulsoj kaj konscio.
    III.
    Jen, ho Ŝariputro, ĉiuj Darmoj havas signon de malpleno; ili ne kaŭziĝas, ne haltiĝas; ne makulas, ne puriĝas; ne mankemas, ne kompletas.
    IV.
    Tial, Ŝariputro, en malpleno estas ne la formo, ne la sento, ne percepto, ne impulsoj, ne konscio; ne okul', orelo, nazo, lango, korpo, menso; ne la formo, son', odoro, gusto, tuŝo, penso; ne vidaĵo, tiel plu ĝis ne mensaĵo; ne malklero, ne malkler-forigo kaj plu tiel ĝis ne maljuniĝo, morto; ne la maljuniĝ-forigo, mort-forigo; ne la suferado, devenado, haltigádo, vojo; ne kompreno, ne atingo, neatingo.
    V.
    Tial, Ŝariputro, Bodhisatvo scion ne celante, kaj fidinte al la Saĝo Pluirinta, Bodhisatvo per senbara koro vivas. Li, senbaran koron posedante, sen-timulo kaj falsec-venkinto, per Nirvano la subteniĝinto.
    VI.
    Ĉiuj Budhoj triepokdevenaj, la fidintaj al la Saĝo Pluirinta, plenvekiĝas al la Plej Perfekta, Ilumino.
    VII.
    Sciu, do: la Saĝo Pluirinta estas eminenta mantro, grandascia mantro, la plej alta mantro, senkompara mantro, mildigil' de ĉia suferado, senfalseca vero! Per la Saĝo Pluirinta jen la mantro transdonita:
    Mantro Kaj Kunsonoro
    Gaté, gaté, páragaté, párasamgaté, bodhi, sváhá!
    Angle traduko
    {Om. Homage to the Blessed, Noble Perfect Wisdom.}
    I.
    {Avalokiteshvara, the noble Bodhisattva, when engaging in the practice of the Transcendental Wisdom, saw that in their nature all Five Aggregates are void and empty.}
    II.
    {Here, O' Shariputra, form is empty, and the void is form itself; from void to form is no distinction, for is not distinct from voidness. That which form has, that is empty also; that which empty is, itself has form. The same is true of feeling and perception, the impulses and conscious.}
    III.
    {Here, O' Shariputra, all Dharmas have the markings of the voidness; they have no causation, no cessation; neither tainted, nor yet spotless; neither lacking, nor completed.}
    IV.
    {Therefore, O' Shariputra, in the voidness there is neither form nor yet sensation, no perception, no impulses, no awareness; nor the eye, the ear, the nose, the tongue, the body, mind; nor yet a shape, a sound, a smell, a taste, a touch, a thought; no seeing-object, thus until no thinking-object; ignorance none, nor ignorance's extinction; and so forth until no growing old, no death; no growing-old's prevention, death's prevention; neither suffering, origination, stopping, nor a pathway; no cognition, no attainment, nor a non-attainment.}
    V.
    {Now, therefore, O' Shariputra, in not aiming at attainment, and relying on the Wisdom Gone Beyond, a Bodhisattva dwells with spirit unobstructed. He, with unobstructed spirit dwelling, unperturbed he overcomes all hindrance; by Nirvana is his last upholding.}
    VI.
    {All the Buddhas of the three world-ages, having placed their faith in Transcendental Wisdom, full awake are they to Perfect Great Illumination.}
    VII.
    {Know then this: the Transcendental Wisdom is a mantram of true greatness, mantram of great knowledge, yea the utmost mantram, mantram without equal, remedy for every ill arising, truth, no deviation! By the Transcendental Wisdom has the mantram been delivered:}
    Mantro Kaj Kunsonoro
    Gaté, gaté, páragaté, párasamgaté, bodhi, sváhá!

    This piece was written for and premiered at an international Esperanto congress held in San Francisco, at the request of leading local Esperantist Cathy Schulze. The premiere took place at San Francisco State University. This piece features what Harrison called his American Gamelan, an ensemble of percussion instruments that Harrison built himself with his partner Bill Colvig, tuned in just intonation.

    Om
    Gloron al la Beata Saĝo Pluirinta

    般若波罗蜜多心经
    2:33 Strofo 1
    La Avalokiteŝvara nobla, Bodhisatvo, moviĝinte en praktiko de la Saĝo Pluirinta, vidis ke malplenas laŭnature la kvin agregatoj
    观自在菩萨,行深般若波罗蜜多时,照见五蕴皆空,度一切苦厄。
    7:18 Strofo 2
    Jen, ho Ŝariputro, form' malplenas, kaj malpleno formas mem; malplen’ je formo ne disiĝas, formo ne disiĝas je malpleno. Kio formas ajn, malplenas tio; kio ajn malplenas, formas tio. Same sento kaj percepto, la impulsoj kaj konscio
    舍利子,色不异空,空不异色;色即是空,空即是色。受、想、行、识,亦复如是。
    11:06 Strofo 3
    Jen, ho Ŝariputro, ĉiuj Darmoj havas signon de malpleno; ili ne kaŭziĝas, ne haltiĝas; ne malpuras, ne puriĝas; ne mankemas, ne kompletas
    舍利子,是诸法空相,不生不灭,不垢不净,不增不减,
    12:33 Strofo 4
    Tial, Ŝariputro, en malpleno estas ne la formo, ne la sento, ne percepto, ne impulsoj, ne konscio; ne okul', orelo, nazo, lango, korpo
    Menso; ne la formo, son', odoro, gusto, tuŝo, penso; ne vidaĵo, tiel plu ĝis ne mensaĵo; ne malklero, ne malkle’forigo kaj plu tiel ĝis ne maljuniĝ'morto; ne la maljuniĝforigo, mortforigo; ne la suferado, devenado, haltigado, vojo; ne kompreno, ne atingo, neatingo
    是故空中无色,无受、想、行、识;无眼、耳、鼻、舌、身、意;无色、声、香、味、触、法;无眼界,乃至无意识界;无无明,亦无无明尽;乃至无老死,亦无老死尽。无苦、集、灭、道,无智亦无得,以无所得故。
    16:44 Strofo 5
    Tial, Ŝariputro, Bodhisatvo vivas. Pro neatingo kaj fidinte al la Saĝo Pluirinta, Bodhisatvo senbara koro vivas. Li, senbaran koron posedante, sentimulo kaj falsecvenkinto. Fine Nirvan' subteniĝinto
    菩提萨埵,依般若波罗蜜多故,心无罣碍。无罣碍故,无有恐怖,远离颠倒梦想,究竟涅槃。
    21:15 Strofo 6
    Ĉiuj Budhoj triepokdevenaj, la fidintaj al la Saĝo Pluirinta, plenvekiĝas al la Plej Perfekta Ilumino
    三世诸佛,依般若波罗蜜多故,得阿耨多罗三藐三菩提。
    23:46 Strofo 7 - Mantro kaj Kunsonoro
    Sciu, do: la Saĝo Pluirinta estas eminenta mantro, grandascia mantro, la plej alta mantro, senkompara mantro, mildigil' de ĉia suferado, senfalseca vero! Per la Saĝo Pluirinta jen la mantro eldiriĝas: Gate, gate, paragate, parasamgate, bodhi, svaha
    故知般若波罗蜜多,是大神咒,是大明咒,是无上咒,是无等等咒,能除一切苦,真实不虚。故说般若波罗蜜多咒,即说咒曰:“揭谛、揭谛,波罗揭谛,波罗僧揭谛,菩提萨婆诃。”
