River
A river is a natural stream of fresh water that flows on land or inside Subterranean river, caves towards another body of water at a lower elevation, such as an ocean, lake, or another river. A river may run dry before reaching the end of its course if it runs out of water, or only flow during certain seasons. Rivers are regulated by the water cycle, the processes by which water moves around the Earth. Water first enters rivers through precipitation, whether from rainfall, the Runoff (hydrology), runoff of water down a slope, the melting of glaciers or snow, or seepage from aquifers beneath the surface of the Earth. Rivers flow in channeled watercourses and merge in confluences to form drainage basins, or catchments, areas where surface water eventually flows to a common outlet. Rivers have a great effect on the landscape around them. They may regularly overflow their Bank (geography), banks and flood the surrounding area, spreading nutrients to the surrounding area.

Rio (Keith Jarrett Album)
''Rio'' is a live double-album of solo piano improvisations by Keith Jarrett, recorded at the Teatro Municipal in Rio de Janeiro on April 9, 2011 and released on ECM in November that same year. Reception The Allmusic review by Thom Jurek awarded the album 4½ stars, stating, "After one listen, it becomes obvious ''Rio'' is indeed very special. It puts on aural display Jarrett as a virtually boundless musician, whose on-the-spot, wide-ranging ideas are executed with astonishing immediacy and dexterity; this music is passionate, poetic (often songlike), and stands outside the confines of genre... since nothing approaching what is here actually exists in Jarrett's recorded catalog. ''Rio'' is therefore the new standard by which the pianist's future solo recordings will be judged, and perhaps also sets the bar for any other player who attempts the same."Jurek, TAllmusic Reviewaccessed November 15, 2011 The Guardian's John Fordham said, "''Rio'' represents Jarrett at his most e ...
