Terra Nostra: a symphony about climate change
You are part of the solution
We are excited to report that we have professionally recorded the revised musical score with Seattle Music and made an award winning film version. Our next steps are to have as many people as possible see, hear, and be moved by Terra Nostra, including through:
- showing Terra Nostra at film festivals around the country;
- reaching out to orchestras around the world to perform Terra Nostra;
- Inviting classical music radio stations to air the piece;
- developing curricula meeting Next Generation Science Standards with lesson plans that will be usable from late grade school through high school;
- bringing the film to schools;
- building a new version of our website that integrates the science behind the phenomena depicted in Terra Nostra; and
- highlighting the steps people can take in their own lives to be part of the solution.
We need your support to take this latest incarnation of Terra Nostra, the culmination of our vision, and share it with as many people as possible. All donors who give $10 or more will receive an electronic copy of the score and multi-channel WAV audio file.
