Hi Isaac: There is nothing as important or worth writing about as water. Thank you for this thoughtful reminder….
Well done! Regards, Muriel Kauffmann
Hi Isaac: Neat work. ‘The Drop that Contained the Sea’ is well worth reading. I’m passing it on. Keep writing. You do it well. Regards, Muriel Kauffmann
Thanks Muriel. Hope you’re well!
Beautiful writing as always. I traveled with you and all those water stories so real and alive!
Thanks for reading 🙂 It was a fun piece to write about!
Janine and I have a son in the Angel City Chorale, who performed “The Drop That Contained the Sea” conducted by Tin last summer in England. The Chorale was joined by a singing group from EU who had been preparing as well. Christopher Tin directed a full orchestra with the chorales, and we were able to be in the audience for two of the three performances. The work is a powerful tribute to one of earth’s elements, which streams through the centuries and which cycles and recycles while humans do everything they can to spoil. It was a moving experience for me. My son was visibly moved, too, by the musical experience of performing with a sea (pond) of fellows. I discovered your blog by accident, and the experience came rushing back. I will read your thoughts on ecology. Serendipity.
That must have been an amazing experience – thank you for sharing that story with me. I’ve been thinking about both water and music lately, about how they are both so vital and unifying. Perhaps it’s time for a relisten.
Thanks for reading.
