Description:

Water is one of the most powerful forces in the world. It creates life and brings about death, and it has the power to shape the face of the earth. Water means different things to different cultures, and I wanted to explore this in The Drop That Contained the Sea. Each piece is inspired by water in a different form, arranged in the order that water flows through the world: melting snow, mountain streams, rivers, the ocean, and so forth. And like Calling All Dawns, the end of the album flows back into the beginning, reflecting the endless nature of the water cycle. Each of the 10 pieces is also sung in a different language, exploring a different vocal tradition: Bulgarian women's choirs, Mongolian throat singing, and Portuguese fado, to name just a few. The album features an all-star collection of international classical and world music artists, including Soweto Gospel Choir, Le MystÃ¨re des Voix Bulgares, Dulce Pontes, Anonymous 4, Schola Cantorum, Kardes TÃ¼rkÃ¼ler, Nominjin, Roopa Mahadevan, Angel City Chorale, and the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra (conducted by Christopher Tin). - ..

2021 release. The title of The Drop That Contained the Sea comes from a Sufi concept: in the same way that every drop of water contains the essence of the sea, inside every human is the essence of all of humanity. The Drop That Contained the Sea was given it's world premiere at Carnegie Hall in 2014, by the Distinguished Concerts Orchestra and Choir, conducted by Jonathan Griffith. The album features an all-star collection of international classical & world music artists and is conducted by Christopher Tin.

Works on the Theme of Water Release includes a 20-page booklet with lyrics (and their translations to English) for all songs.
