2012-03-06 Composer of Flyways wins Audubon award.
Paul Winter will receive the John James Audubon Center Award
for Art Inspiring Conservation (AIC), just prior to a special public concert by
the Paul Winter Consort, on Saturday, April 21.
His newest project, Flyways, is a musical celebration of the
great bird migration from Africa through the Middle East to Eurasia
interweaving the voices of the birds with indigenous music from the cultures
over which they fly. Winter and the Great Rift Valley Orchestra will perform
Flyways March 16 and 17 in New York’s
Cathedral of St. John the Divine.
His sequel project, “Flyways of the Americas,” will be with BirdLife International
under the coordination of Audubon (BirdLife in USA), and Music for the Earth. |
