 note = {The appropriation of Asian music to form a contemporary musical voice can be observed in many countries.  This study of the Australian woman composer, Anne Boyd (b. 1946), shows how Asian, particularly Japanese music was the essential stimulus for the creation of a personal, identifiably female musical idiom.  Boyd's style reflects her understanding of the importance of meditative qualities in Asian music.  A key example of her meditative style is the unaccompanied choral piece ""As I crossed a bridge of dreams"", inspired by Sarashina Nikki.  Its choral textures recreate the timbres of the shō in the gagaku ensemble.  Ultimately, Boyd can be called an orientalist, since ,despite her love of Asian music and philosophy, she seems uninterested in contemporary Asia.},
