All Prices Are In U.S. Dollars & Are Subject To Publisher Revision 26 Go to cart the best new CONCERT SELECTIONS Music in the Water Victor C. Johnson. "There is music in the water, music in its singing tide, in its clear and crystal beauty flowing down the mountainside." Johnson's artful setting of the Lura Anna Boies text features sweeping melodic lines and a gentle piano accompaniment that emulates flowing water. The triplets in the piano accompaniment often set up a three-against-two pattern with the choral parts to create a delicious tension in the texture of the piece. It's a superb choice for a concert selection that teaches musicality and music advocacy at the same time. 10757171 SATB . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.10 10757172 SSA . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.10 The Music of Stillness Elaine Hagenberg.
