Product details
Aftermath was written during time spent
in Tasmania's takayna/Tarkine after the 2016 bushfires that burnt
large areas of rainforest in the northwest coast. I was walking
along a beach at Sarah Anne Rocks, where the vegetation had been
thoroughly burnt right up to the coast. Amongst the blackness, I
saw two speckled eggs on the sand. As I pondered the
vulnerability of these tiny, exposed eggs, one of them hatched
right before my eyes, revealing a shivering baby hooded plover.
It was in this place between devastated landscape and fragile new
life that I wrote this piece. Dedicated to the fire-fighters,
many volunteer, who risk their lives to fight these increasingly
frequent and large bushfires.
Aftermath is written for viola and
voice to be performed by one person. There are low and high voice
versions available.
