Book excerpt: "To accompany the photographs, Ryerson recruited some of the most important names in music. These world-class artists, from twenty-two countries on five continents, and from across the musical spectrum, have contributed memoirs, stories, poetry, music, and lyrics for Water Music, reinforcing the beauty of the images and the powerful message they convey. Rhythmist Mickey Hart recalls how, as a boy, listening to the percussion of falling rain led to a musical transfiguration. For mezzo-soprano Susanne Mentzer, water is where she found her voice as a little girl, while singing in a culvert under Whiskey Run Creek. And from his mother's astrologer, Phish bassist Mike Gordon learned that water could be his "window to the cosmos.""--BOOK JACKET.
