Moving water has always fascinated me. Whether it’s in a stream, faucet, ocean, or full-flowing waterfall, I enjoy the sound and the mesmerizing motion of it. Does it inspire me? Yes. And I don’t think I’m alone. There must be millions of images of waterfall inspiration alone on the internet.
One of the results for me is that I often try to capture this beauty on my video camera. Now that this technology is packed into my phone, I’m really dangerous.
The joy of this is that I was able to collect a series of stream, rapids, and waterfall videos into a visual backdrop for one of the compositions (based on an improvisation, of course) from my album/CD Disappointment and Delight, “Seascape”. Even though the musical piece was inspired by the ocean, I think you’ll find that the “flow” of the music matches the water in motion well. Let me know what you think in the comments here or on my video channel.
Enjoy!
Playful blessings,
