The Meaning of Water (2006)
“But the new composition of The Meaning of Water [for seven harps] by Andrew Schultz was I felt a masterpiece. It was like a water instrument with gurglings and churnings and words can’t describe it. The ladies are playing in San Francisco next week at the American Harp Congress.” [Live Journal, austspecfic.livejournal.com/30448.html, 27 June 2006]
“The Meaning of Water follows…seamlessly, with simple melodic fragments tossed around on rippling, surging figurations.” [Malcolm Tattersall, Music Forum, Autumn 2011]
” The Meaning of Water by Andrew Schultz, was a masterpiece with the ripple of the harps. like water instruments full of gurglings and churnings achieving what words can’t adequately describe.” [Brian Millett, Yass Music Club, 23 February 2019]
