"Everything" from "Riverboat Songs of the Lost Spring" (Song Cycle by Barnabas Sharp)

The fifth movement from "Riverboat Songs of the Lost Spring", composed and performed by Barnabas Sharp. The poem, "Everything", written by Paul Kidd Hewitt (source: www.poetry-fes... - permission currently being sought)
Faced with the concept of a national lockdown, this poem takes a stern look at the reality of the situation and tells us what we need to know. The music feels static yet timeless as an ascending and descending exponential scale is used as the groundwork for the melody and accompaniment.
