SB Partner: “For the Birds Concert
March 14 @ 7:00 pm - 8:30 pm
For the Birds features a jazz quintet performing the original music of Seattle pianist and composer Nelda Swiggett. But this is not just a concert. The performance engages the power of artistic expression — live music, spoken words, images and poetry — to connect audiences deeply and emotionally to the scientific realities of climate change. Ultimately a story of hope, individuals leave the performance feeling empowered to take meaningful action.
Why birds? Birds are a part of our daily life experience, and an inspiring connection to the natural world. But climate change is having a significant and alarming impact on many bird species, and this should be a wake-up call for all of us.
The quintet features Nelda Swiggett (compositions, piano, vocal), Clif Swiggett (trombone, percussion), Mark Taylor (saxophone, flute), Chris Symer (bass), Adam Kessler (drums), and the poetry of Jill McGrath.
