Live music, images and poetry invite reflection on our changing climate
For the Birds features a jazz quintet performing the original music of Seattle pianist and composer Nelda Swiggett. But this is not just a concert. The performance engages the power of artistic expression — live music, spoken words, images and poetry — to connect audiences emotionally to the scientific realities of climate change through the lens of birds. Ultimately a story of hope, audiences leave the performance feeling empowered to take meaningful action.
Featuring Nelda Swiggett (piano, compositions), Clif Swiggett (trombone), Kate Olson (saxophone, flute), Chris Symer (bass), Adam Kessler (drums), and the poetry of Jill McGrath.
