Reid Lunch-hour Concert

This programme has been very carefully compiled from repertoire with a theme of water (in its various forms) running through it.

1. the sound of oars on the smooth dark surface of a Venetian canal
2. the sound of distant thunder as portentous grey clouds gather
3. the sudden almost silent beginning of a snow fall
4. the imprint of solitary footsteps on a frozen surface of the fallen snow
5. the glimpse of a rainbow
6. the placid, glass surface of still, dark water
7. the fantastical invocation of a water-nymph, depicted by two composers
8. the sonic depression of cascades of glittering water in fountains

I would like to perform the programme in three groups, as I think they sequence well together.   N.A.
