Water, Water, Everywhere presented by Musica Viva in Schools

Water, Water, Everywhere is a 45 minutes children’s show featuring a trio arrangement of the Water Concerto by the Grammy Award winning composer Tan Dun. The piece beautifully evokes memories of his childhood in the waterlogged rice fields of China and features custom made water instruments and new techniques of playing. Bringing this world to life is Thea Rossen, who plays vibraphone and an array of other percussion instruments in water, including gongs, bells, wooden bowls and tin cans. She leads an ensemble comprised of Luke Carbon on clarinet and Leigh Harrold on keyboard. Students get to create their own music out of water, and come to appreciate that water is a precious resource. Suitable for kinder to Year 7.

The show was built in 2017 and toured from 2018 - 2021 with over 300 performances for more than 50,000 Australian school children.
