No. 3: Jardins sous la pluie (Gardens in the Rain)

The delicate arpeggios depict rain falling on the trees in the garden. The piece skillfully incorporates themes drawn from two French children's songs: "Dodo l’enfant do" (Sleep, baby, sleep) and "Nous n’irons plus au bois" (We will go to the woods no more).

Compared to the typically humid image of rain in Japan, this piece conveys a rather dry and clear impression.
