520    ... "The Drop that Contained the Sea" is a collection of 
       commissioned works, reimagined and arranged for chorus and
       orchestra. Each of the 10 pieces is sung in a different 
       language, exploring a different vocal tradition. Each 
       piece also deals with water in a different form, arranged 
       in the order the water flows through the world: melting 
       snow, mountain streams, rivers, the ocean, and so forth. 
       And like my last album "Calling All Dawns", the end of the
       album flows back into the beginning, reflecting the 
       endless nature of the water cycle. Finally, the title ... 
       comes from a Sufi concept: in the same way that every drop
       of water contains the essence of the sea, inside every 
       human is the essence of all of humanity. In keeping with 
       this idea I've introduced a water theme in the Prelude, 
       and woven subtle variations throughout the album. It 
       contains all seven notes of a major scale - four 
       descending and three ascending - mirroring the flow of 
       water though our world, and representing the vast ocean of
       melodic possibility contained within a single scale."--
