The Rillito River, running through Tuscon, AZ, along the foothills of the Santa Catalina Mountains, was once a river that flowed year round. Now that the effects of global warming are being acknowledged worldwide, THE RILLITO RIVER PROJECT, as documented in this recording, brings the issue home in vivid musical terms. It centers on the world/new age/classical concert piece "Elemental Flow" by composer/violinist Patmore Lewis, whose music tells a story as old as creation and emanates from the site where the story is still unfolding.
