About This Song
About "Going to School (From "Memoirs of a Geisha" Soundtrack)" by Itzhak Perlman
Perlman's contribution to the 'Memoirs of a Geisha' soundtrack, 'Going to School,' is a tender, evocative miniature. The violin's delicate phrasing mirrors a young girl's tentative steps into a rigid world, its beauty shadowed by an undercurrent of melancholy—innocence poised on the threshold of tradition's heavy door.
