Lou Harrison said: A friend reminded me that Conductor L. Stokowski was about to celebrate his 90th birthday, and that several composers had already written short pieces for the occasion so in a hurry, I composed Jahla. It was performed, with other pieces, during the birthday party for this dear friend. In Jahla, the compositional technique was taken from that practiced in northern India, where a pedal is used between the notes of the melody, thus producing the sound of perpetual movement. About Avalokiteshvara, Harrison said: Avalokiteshvara is the Buddha of compassion, he who saves all creatures. It is a piece written in the Korean style called The Delightful.

Back in the 1960s, when fingerpicking folk guitarists were a dime a dozen, John Fahey stood out for several reasons. For one thing, his sense of humor was sophisticated and unfashionably cynical for the period (this is the guy, remember, who simultaneously celebrated the blues tradition and ridiculed his own blues pretensions by adopting the nom de plume of "Blind Joe Death"). But most of all, he possessed absolutely astounding chops, and made no attempt to hide his superior guitar skills despite a pop music climate which was much kinder to earnest amateurism than to hard-earned virtuosity. Since that period, though, his profile has stayed pretty low.
