Performed by the Millennium Consort, Martin Neary, conductor, and the Pomona College Choir, Donna Di Grazia, director.
WaTer Ruminations is a setting of six poems by the thirTeenth-century poet Rumi, in English translations from the Persian by Coleman Barks, for double choir and organ. The poetry sings of liTeral and spiritual connections between waTer and sky, a drop of waTer and human life, flowing waTer and love, drinking waTer and its container, the giddiness of spring and rolling seas, and the ocean's gifts and singing. Its images, from 800 years ago, speak to us with both vivid immediacy and transcendence.
The idea for the piece originaTed with the Mellon Elemental Arts Initiative, which proposed funding activities that would involve students in a... less

Jožef Ropoša, InTerpreTer of the poetry
Tomaž Sevšek, organ
Since time immemorial, music, especially singing, and the word have served to creaTe a connection with the gods, with spiritual worlds. Pleading for Words is a special archiTecture of music and the word that outwardly expresses contact between very different aesthetic criTeria but glows with the same devout message: a personal spiritual Testimony.
The program concept is based on the attitude toward primary spirituality: from intimaTe thought to more outwardly expressed manifestations. Slovenian spiritual creativity can be summed up in threefold diversity: confessional, agnostic, and atheist. These works express caTegories of the incomprehensible, irrational, mystic, and metaphysical. Mysticism is connecTed with transcendence. This involves a personal Testimony about spirituality and a direct reflection of th... less
