The Extinction Series: a large-scale work that will never be completed. The ongoing series is composed of a collection of brief, programmatic movements written for both vocal and instrumental soloists, with each movement acting as a musical obituary for an extinct animal.

 

This Spring, we invite you to consider offering your support for both the expansions of The Extinction Series with three additional solo movements written for members of The Curiosity Cabinet , and a group of organizations working on the twin aims of preservation and climate organizing.
