# Event Details

- **Event Name**: 2026 May Festival - The Water's Journey
- **Event Start and End Date**: Sat, 16 May, 2026 at 07:30 pm (-04:00)
- **Event Description**: Explore the elemental power of water through two bold visions. Duke Ellington’s jazz-infused "The River" flows with elegance and swing, portraying the river’s journey from tranquil beginnings to its powerful arrival at the sea. Its momentum leads into Ralph Vaughan Williams’ monumental "A Sea Symphony," which sets the poetry of Walt Whitman in a choral celebration of the ocean’s mystery and majesty — part hymn, part voyage into the unknown. Together, these works invite us to listen deeply — to the pull of tide and current, and to the human longing for connection and discovery.
