Shoot and Leaf and Breath and Feet by Claire Roberts
Everything. Overflowing. Spilling. Walk with me to the bluest horizon on a path like this... Poet Harry Jelley imagines an alternative planet, after the ecological destruction of the climate crisis. We start off in a dry, cracking, groaning planet, only to be taken to an alternative reality where nature is so saturated there are so many flowers and birds and colours that we run out of names for them. The piece is a song cycle made up of three songs with poetry narration woven between them.

1. Introduction
2. Shoot and Leaf and Breath and Feet
3. Walk With Me
Feel free to sing along to the final refrain

same but different by Sylvia Lim
A work in two movements
1. bend
2. lullaby for the end/ beginning
Exploring repeated sounds that are subtly altered through colour and pitch.
