Thow - Songs for the Earth - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

Olivier Orand is an electronic / IDM producer whose debut album, Human, made quite an impact when it was originally released in 2008 under the monicker Hol Baumann. From 2017 the French soundscaper decided to produce music under his own name, and in 2019 Sidereal took care of Human re- on CD and 2LP.

Yolanda Kondonassis writes InchFIVE MINUTES for Earth® is a project that both celebrates our planet and illuminates our challenge to preserve it. In 2020, I asked each of the composers featured in this collection if they would consider contributing a work for solo harp of approximately five minutes in length that expresses a powerful experience inspired by Earth in one of it's many conditions or atmospheres. I was overwhelmed by the generosity of immediate responses and set about assembling this labor-of-love project. The endeavor quickly expanded to include a live, multi-media concert, fifteen unique videos for each track, a separate published collection of Earth-inspired solos for younger harpists, and most importantly, the opportunity for harpists all over the world to perform these innovative, Earth-inspired works for solo harp by some of today's most lauded composers; in doing so, every verified performance of any of the works from the FIVE MINUTES for Earth collection, anywhere in the world, will result in a monetary contribution to a recognized earth conservation organization, sponsored by my non-profit organization, Earth at Heart. FIVE MINUTES for Earth is also a metaphor for the urgent and compressed timeframe that remains for our global community to embrace and implement solutions to our fast-growing environmental crisis.Inch
