In Wildness

Thu, Sept 12, 2019
Vestas
The music in this concert is about the poles, the sea, the glaciers, and the myriad creatures depending upon us to protect a planet that belongs to them, too. It is about the point where art and science meet, where animals are given a voice, and the measurable level of the sea and undeniably decreasing volume of polar ice are translated into a collection of pitches, howls, and drumbeats calling to us in ways numbers cannot.
