Digital Sheet Music [PDF]: Score & Part(s)This Earthly Round (Redux) : for alto saxophone and piano [eScore] / Miriama Young.by Miriama Young (2014)
|
Product details
This Earthly Round was written as a musical response to
climate change-deniers who choose to ignore scientific evidence
to the contrary and continue to set policies that exacerbate
environmental problems.
The music attempts to capture a sense of planet Earth's beauty,
fragility and vulnerability. The 'round' slowly corrodes, becomes
weaker and less hospitable, until the piece concludes with a
bleak apocalyptic view of our possible future habitat.
This is our earthly round - a musical round;
Our joyous, brief moment of habitation;
On a fragile sphere known as Planet Earth, held in the
balance.
The piece is dedicated to former Australian Prime Minister Tony
Abbott.
