SUSTAIN

  • Sturm Family Auditorium, Denver Botanic Gardens 1007 York Street Denver, CO, 80206 United States (map)

In this Playground Ensemble program centered around the environment, we perform new music that points to the fragility and resilience of Earth and of ourselves. How can we contain both the grief of forest fires and the hopeful work of climate recovery?

Featuring contributions from the National Center for Atmospheric Research, this concert includes beautiful and resonant compositions using bones from Antarctica as instruments; a work that calls out the plight of deforestation; and a work connecting our region's wind patterns to drum beats.

Funding for this program was provided by Denver Arts & Venues through the Denver Music Advancement Fund.
