Flowing. Reflective. Timeless. Like the ever-moving waters it portrays, The River carries listeners on a journey through life’s stages—playful innocence, steady resolve, and the swift pull of the unknown. Set to Caroline Anne Bowles’ evocative poetry, this lyrical choral work captures the river’s transformation, from a sparkling stream to a silent current racing toward eternity.
With graceful lines and a natural ebb and flow, The River is both deeply expressive and effortlessly approachable. A piece that invites singers and audiences alike to reflect, to listen, and to follow the water’s course—wherever it may lead.
