You may download this track to keep.
“Droplets,” by Kevin Weed, is an album of short, improvised reflections, on the play, “The Diviners,” by Jim Leonard, Jr. While the idea for this album came from a desire to create underscoring for the play, it is perhaps even more enjoyable as simple, original piano music, creating a thoughtful atmosphere. The music was not composed for specific scenes, but rather for various moods present in the play. Rather than imitate music of the time period and locale, Kevin focuses on the inner feelings of the folks in fictional Zion, Indiana.
Directors and sound designers may find the tracks, or parts of tracks useful for background music or transitional music, and are welcome to use this album for that pupose. To that end, included are the hymn “Shall We Gather At The River” and a rendition of Amazing Grace played very simply on a mountain dulcimer, as called for on the script. The other tracks reflect dramatic tensions and moods which may be helpful in underscoring various scenes or transitions without being specific to any scenes in the play. Tracks 1-4 may be found to make nice prelude music as the audience gathers. Track 5 is a grand overture.
