Teuehikan

Music for the introduction

Shikuan

Music for the poem

Michel Smith composed these pieces of music specifically for the project Oh River… by immersing himself in the words, the images and the actors’ rendition of the text. The resulting music strengthens the impact of the whole, on the visual plane as well as the poetic one, and enhances the feeling that emanates from the reading of the poem by Adriana Ramponi.

It is a joy to listen to these compositions by themselves; they tell of the river in their own way.

The music for the Introduction is entitled Teuehikan (drum) and the one for the Poem, Shikuan (Spring).
