Music in the Green

Calling on all musicians - professional and non - to include in your performances pieces that celebrate water and green growing things: trees, plants, bushes, forests, and all the creatures that thrive in greenery, like birds, animals, people.

I am sure you know plenty such pieces. I have been collecting songs and instrumental works for many years. You may browse my list and add to it as well.

Why am I appealing to you?

This is as good a time as any to remind our audiences, our families, ourselves of our precious heritage of trees and grasses and plants that enrich our earth, shelter us, feed us and provide us with the air we breathe.

Join me and others in this movement of music in service of our beautiful green and blue planet. Sing it in the shower, and share it with all who listen to you perform, and all who perform with you.
