Laughing Water – Music Story

What does water sound like when it cascades down a hill, tumbling over rocks, falling, splashing into pools? Do you hear a heehaw, chuckle, guffaw, titter, snigger, howl, hoot, chortle? Is there mirth, joy, glee?

Laughing water – Minnehaha. How would you notate that?




From the album “Paper Book Colors – Nature Sings” this video is scrolling playback of a flute solo overlaid with audio, photos, and video of laughing water from my backyard.
