“This piece is named 'Haru', a nickname he called himself with friends — a play on his own name of course, but one which also means 'Spring' in Japanese.“
In honour of Harold Budd’s passing a year ago, Hans-Joachim Roedelius and Tim Story share Haru — a song named after and dedicated to their dear friend.
