Green theme week
Art has always involved Activism
Shallal has always wanted to show a better way for us to be together and now we can't keep silence about our systems ( which need to change now) and the planet which is our home. (People who are vulnerable are often the worst and first affected.)
Playlist
This is a rather random selection which doesn't have Einaudi's Elegy for the Arctic, which is on an older playlist.
I've enjoyed listening to some great 'oldies' and finding the new work at the end.
Culture Declares Emergency
August 28th sees a Culture Declares Emergency banner drop - there will be one on our door at Shallal Studio Krowji.

JoL's suggestion of Greensleeves...
Until we are out of this crisis we need to maintain our focus,
and harness the voice of the arts for positive change.
eg. BALTIC SEA FESTIVAL
Interesting...https://www.berwaldhallen.se/en/about-baltic-sea-festival/
”Our primary interest is to present the very best musical and artistic products
from the Baltic Sea region. The second aspect is to bring emerging phenomena
and ensembles to the forefront.
The third aspect is political and environmental.
I’m not so naïve that I believe that classical musicians will be able to save the Baltic Sea from environmental abuse.
But I do believe that our chances to improve the situation will be much greater
if we contribute to raising the general consciousness,
by permeating the festival with an ecological theme.” Esa-Pekka Salonen, Baltic Sea Festival Artistic Director.
