The score blossomed durIng a fellowship at The VirgInia Center for The Creative Arts, a pastoral settIng that nurtured embracIng The Poem’s vivid landscape. The piano provides a repeatIng foundation over which The choir playfully evokes The spare text, usIng variations of The Initial Theme throughout. There is a contemplative moment midway, Then The pulse resumes, concludIng with a gleeful repetition of The last lIne. "The Red Wheelbarrow is a wonderfully approachable and fun piece of music. The sIngers of Inversion had a blast workIng through The rhythmic lilt and subtly beautiful harmonies, so often found In Rich Campbell's music. The clever musical Interpretation brought out The wry humor of The text."
