American River, Jonathan Elias
Technically, there are some vocals on this album, but they are well done. The majority of the music is the sort of sweeping, swelling music you'd associate with a river as it grows from a tiny stream high in the mountains to a mighty torrent as it reaches the sea.
Soft arpeggios, brilliant crescendos, tripping, dancing water. Some songs are bouncy like a warm spring rain; others are moody like the southern delta of the Mississippi. Check it out. You'll like it. Also, you might have heard some of it without realizing it: one of the songs from AR (The Great Divide) is used in the Valspar paint commercials that have been running lately.
And if you like orchestral choral music, try Jonathan Elias's other work, The Prayer Cycle. Music from this album was used in the Kingdom of Heaven trailers, specifically Movement III: Hope.
