The river Scheldt is 400 kilometres long and flows through France, Belgium and The Netherlands. The introduction describes the river on a misty morning as we hear the sirens of ships. The music evokes the nobility of the river, the beauty of the surrounding nature, and the gratitude of the people to whom it gives work and income.
