The River

Music for String Quartet and Voice

The Music

What The River

A pastoral exposition – if the pasture happens to be the Mississippi River…..

The Fog

The strings now represent the water in the air….

The Drowned

the beginning is a sea shanty, representing a life of moving things on the river, but quickly dissolves…

A River With A Past – a blues

it’s subtle nod to the blues

The Spillway

The rain begins and the water rises…

Mother Mississippi Rising

The river destroys…..

What The River: Coda
