A blackbird at dawn inspired a living score: Natalia Beylis' 45-minute work, Around Here, The Birds Plant The Trees, is a sonic meditation on land stewardship. A 45-minute composition grown from the sounds, stories and textures of a single field in Leitrim — shaped in real time and unfolding new variations at each performance.
