a world without birds
The project "A World Without Birds" is based on the book "Hva skal vi svare våre barn?" (Vetlesen and Willig) and transformates a scientific/philosophical text about the climate crisis into musical and poetic works.
In the book, the authors write about nine mental "bird traps" that prevent us from seeing the truth about the climate crisis in the eyes, thinking clearly and speaking the truth. In "A World Without Birds", these "bird traps" have become self-examining and popular musical texts about escape routes. The music will be written with arrangement for filharmonic orchestra by Ingebjørg Vilhelmsen https://www.ingebjorgvilhelmsen.com/
The project will be presented in autumn 2025 & through 2026
