Community Climate Concert

Inspired by climate activist, Greta Thunberg, Denver pianist Heidi

Leathwood presents a community climate concert, “The House

Explodes”, at 7 p.m., Sunday, April 5, 2020 at the Unitarian Church,

6300 A St.

Heidi states, “In thinking about the role of the arts historically in social

movements, I am compelled to lend my voice, as an artist to this cause.”

I commissioned new works for this project. They include a group of

songs by Colorado composer, Leanna Kirchoff, using portions of Greta

Thunberg’s speeches as lyrics, a new solo piano work by Colorado

composer Jasper George, called “A Swede in America,” based on

Thunberg’s visit to the US Congress, and a new multi-media work for

piano by British composer Milton Mermikides, using sonification of

climate-change data. Addi5onal piano pieces on the program are

“Jokulhlaup” (catastrophic glacial flood) by Paul Hembree, and “The

House Explodes” by Leanna Kirchoff. Solo piano pieces and songs will be

performed by Heidi Brende Leathwood, pianist, and Stephanie

Ambrose, mezzo-soprano. At the concert, learn more about and

connect with local groups and leaders in climate ac5on.
