Dear Gabriele,
On this last Music Monday of Women’s History Month - the month which also contains the Spring Equinox - we wanted to share with you the lovely Ghosts of Cascadia by the young American composer Kirsten Volness. It was premiered by Duo Stephanie & Saar in their concert Fanfare for the Uncommon Woman on March 3 in Miami.
In the composer’s own words: “Ghosts of Cascadia was inspired by the spiritual presence I feel of people I recently lost in the woods, in the wind, in the sounds of waterfalls as luscious plant life springs forth all around us…”
Warmly,
Gabriele Fiorentino
