Description:
In From Scorched Earth Canadian Composer Katerina Gimon brings to life the words of Canadian poet Saphren Ma written in response to the devastating wildfires and floods experienced in their home province of British Columbia in 2017. Applying her uniquely dynamic, poignant, and eclectic compositional style, Katerina's setting takes us on a powerful musical and emotional journey that explores reckoning with feelings of grief and hopefulness in the aftermath of climate tragedy as well as serves as a reminder of how we can learn from and find hope in the resilience of nature. Just as new growth emerges from fire-scorched soil, we too can rise anew from tragedy and create our own new beginnings - making the change we wish to see and moving toward a place of healing and hope. This piece is a great fit for many programs, including those on themes of nature, climate change, grief, anxiety, resilience, and renewal.
