A slightly Japanese 5/4 piece originally written for alto in F minor. The first 2 bar phrase is inspired by Paul Desmond's opening solo phrase on his own composition "Take Ten" on the disc of that name.

Then the chords shift under the A A B A melody and the final A modulates in the last bars to F major.

Shibui is a Japanese term meaning, among other things, subtle, gentle artistry without effort.
