Henry Ramer portrays the first voice of the river, a talkative old story-teller. The second and youthful voice is Colin Fox. Human reason and conscience are the third, portrayed by Jackie Burroughs; and the fourth voice of animal instinct and self-knowledge is Peg Dixon. The voices appear to personify various symbolic aspects of the river and to convey human conflicts such as consciousness versus instinct and illusion versus reality. Sound effects convey the impression of water rippling, gurgling and dripping, as well as animal growls, heartbeats and birds singing. <60mn>Subjects:DRAMA~RADIO PLAYS ~BURROUGHS, JACKIE~FINDLEY, TIMOTHYLanguage:EnglishNotes:Genre:DRAMADetailed holdings information: -
