An awesome song for three voices by Meredith Buck, inspired by a wilderness workshop exercise she participated in where she had to cross a river blindfolded, following only the sound of a drummer on the other bank.

Oh River by Karisha Longaker

Simple Gifts : Amazing Grace

A fun, rhythmic, layered song inviting us to listen deeply to the rhythm of the Earth and the sound of the river. 

Lyrics:

Part 1: Put your roots down, put your feet on the ground, can you hear what she says when you listen?

Part 2: Cause the sound of the river as it moves across the stone is the same sound as the blood in your body as it moves across your bones.

by Molly Hartwell

Put Your Roots Down - Molly Hartwell - All Parts

An original 5-part polyphonic song that serves as a reminder to listen to life's subtle nods and not wait until the rug is pulled out from under us to make a change... This song has also become somewhat of an anthem for environmentalists and climate change.

Written and arranged by Britta Gudmunson, 2019.

Part I
What if what we are doing right now
Ripples out beyond what the eye can see?

Part II
What is this step a part of that's bigger than me?
Bigger than me, bigger than me

Part III
What is happening through me?
Happening, happening, happening through me?
