"Sustain" presented by The Playground Ensemble

In this Playground Ensemble concert 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, we are excited to present 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.
