The Sound of Climate
Tabitha McGrath
Can we send a message about Climate change through Music? The Sound of Climate is aiming to do just that.
Winner at 2020 Young Audience Music Awards ‘Best Large Ensemble’ category
This visually impressive educational concert, with stunning symphonic repertoire, successfully addressed the question of climate change in a very engaging, interesting and impactful manner. The programme delved into the world of music linked to nature, featuring Vivaldi and Max Richter’s Seasons, and further repertoire from Copland, Respighi, Ketelbey. This project in collaboration with Oslo Philharmonic was premiered at Oslo Konserthuset, with conductor Christian Schumann and David Chocron, Artist Director and Video Producer in January 2020.
