Vous qui venez, dedicated to pianist Umberto Beccaria, is a short miniature for solo piano, recorded in 2019 at Punto Rec Studios on a Fazioli model 278 concert grand piano.

Wang Wei is one of the most emblematic poets of the Tang dynasty, also renowned as a painter and musician. His poetry often reflects landscapes and states of mind deeply connected with the aesthetics of Chan (Zen Buddhism).

Vous qui venez de mon pays natal is the French translation of a short poem (jueju, four lines).

In English, the sense may be rendered as:

“You who come from my native land,
you must know how things are there.
On the day of your departure, before the adorned window,
was the winter plum already in bloom?”
