“If there is magic on this planet, it is contained in water.” – Loren Eiseley
The element of water is critical to our existence. We can live quite some time without food, but we cannot live more than a few days without water. It’s no surprise, then, that water permeates so much of the music we hear. Today’s episode is all about water music – music composed and performed with music as the inspiration.
