Smile O voluptuous cool-breathed earth!

Description

Baritone, Violin 1, Violin 2, Viola, Cello — A beautiful extract from Garrop's major oratorio Terra Nostra, set to the poem by Walt Whitman. Terra Nostra considers, through texts and poems, the world as it was, humanity's rise and impact on the Earth, and a cautious hope for a reawakening of our bond with this planet. The Whitman poem celebrates our love for an earlier, more natural Earth - the Earth as it should be.
