Harry Partch: selections from Water! Water!
a. Water Criers. Visitors from strange and foreign places:
The Singer from Spoleto, and an Alabama Mocking Bird -- Dear Old Alabama
b. Water Criers. The baseball game is called on account of rain!
c. Opening Epilogue. Ghosts, Undele, Oomph! (The Indian Ghosts dance
over Clarence's body and play on liquor bottles)
d. Do-lo-lo-lo -- doom! (Aldermen, Ladies, and Ghosts) Phoebus bids
farewell. The Indian Runners bring news. The final song and dance,
Gone, Man, Gone! (whole ensemble). With the descending moan of sirens
Phoebus plunges wildly into nothingness.
