Down to the River first came through like a babbling brook bouncing over many stones, as I watched a swollen spring river tumble by. The loose harmonies were less coordinated, with each line meandering at its own unspecified pace that varied depending on who was singing it. I noticed some folks were uncomfortable with that much freedom to explore an unknown song. I reflected that even the most loud and busy rivers are actually quite organised when you pay attention; sections of water move in repeating patterns dictated by underlying topography, water volume, and perhaps a few other factors. So I tightened up the harmonies so that the braid of voices is smooth and consistent.
