“The Whole Sea In Motion” sets a prose text from Agnes Grey; a 1907 novel by British author Anne Bronte. In choosing this text to set; the composer was struck by the first sentence; which begins “No language can describe [...] the sky and ocean” and then proceeds to do just that; detailing the narrator's experience of the ocean in a vivid; keen language. Within the musical setting of the text; the ocean is represented alternately in the ebbing and flowing of the aleatoric piano accompaniment and in overlapping melodic lines in the chorus. Duration: ca. 5 min
