by Adams. After hearing this recording of Become Ocean, Taylor Swift donated USD $50,000 to the Seattle Symphony. "Become" trilogy Become Ocean was followed by Become River (2014), for chamber orchestra, and Become Desert (2018), for an ensemble of five orchestral and choral groups. The composer said these works formed "...a trilogy that I never set out to write in the first place."
