This work is scored for a professional children's choir, or a women's chorus, guiro(s) and harp and is based on a folk song from northern Shaanxi Province in China. The music is a simple rhythmic towing song sung by boat-trackers along the river and is noted for its vivid reflection of the tempestuous turbulence of the river.
