From flowing waters to fiery rhythms, ancient earth to perpetual motion, this program is shaped by the elemental forces that define our world. Framed by the percussive urgency of Libby Larsen’s Gavel Patter and Poulenc’s Sonata, the music travels through shimmering reflections, architectural shapes, lyrical storytelling, and playful motion.
We live in a critical time—where each decision carries weight and consequence. This program evokes beauty, movement, and cultural memory, reminding us of our primal connection to the natural world. Can we live in harmony with our planet?
