Current Arrangement
The current arrangement of the Yellow River Cantata contains eight movements. However, most performances only use seven, omitting the fourth. The cantata is meant to be performed by a full Western orchestra with some Chinese instruments, and a full SATB choir. Soloists include a bass in the second movement, a tenor and baritone in the fifth, and a soprano in the sixth. There is also a male speaker, who recites various political exhortations at the beginning of each movement.

Famous quotes containing the words current and/or arrangement:
“If the current is right, one can drift to success.”
—Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
“There is no reason why parents who work hard at a job to support a family, who nurture children during the hours at home, and who have searched for and selected the best [daycare] arrangement possible for their children need to feel anxious and guilty. It almost seems as if our culture wants parents to experience these negative feelings.”
—Gwen Morgan (20th century)
