"First you hear the river, flowing, splashing. Then, when you listen closer, subtler sounds emerge, pebbles rolling, bubbles fizzing. In response to this soundscape, I created a virtual instrument from the field recording, allowing the river’s voice to be played on a keyboard like a melody. 

"A continuo rhythmic pattern flows throughout, varying with the terrain as the river passes through landforms of hills, fields and villages on its journey to the Thames. The river’s song rises and falls with the composition’s mood, and in the final moments, the sound ascends like rushing wind before fading out."
