John Cage, Jean-Pierre Robert : Ryoanji for solo double bass

From the stone garden of Kyoto to John Cage, Ryoanji is a zen non-time.
The percussions draw the rhythmic tracks of rake on the gravel.The calligraphy of the instrumental parts in the score reminds the silhouettes of stones.
All sounds ( tailpiece percussions, slaps glissando, legno tirato polyphonies, nails glissando, fingerboard percussions melodies ) are from the acoustic double bass.

京都の石が多い庭園からジョン Cage まで、 Ryoan - ji は禅非時（非天気）です。 リズミカルな（人たち・もの）が熊手の痕跡後に砂利を敷く percussions かれ谷。 パーティション（スコア）の中の有用な部分（パーティー）のカリグラフィーは後部（思い出させてください）を石のシルエットと呼びます。
すべての音（ropemaker の percussions 、平手打ち、足ノーの多詐欺師の glissando 。 Tirato 、くぎの glissando 、キー（感触））の percussions のメロディーはコントラバスの音響の音です。 Credit : Jazz Bank, Labelle Musique.

Thanks for this video. I am interested in your statement, 'Ryoanji is a zen non-time.' Does the proper name of the stone garden have some of this sense, or are you connecting both the garden and the music to a zen notion of time? Thanks for any thoughts.

Wow I had no idea Cage had a track like this. Do you know of any other works for solo double bass?
