Arts for the Soul: Rising Tide

Rising Tide: The Crossroads Project
Rising Tide: The Crossroads Project

At the dawn of the 21st century, humanity has arrived at an extraordinary Crossroads. “Rising Tide: The Crossroads Project” brings the power of performance art to bear on one of the great conversations of our time — humanity’s growing unsustainability and the possibility for a truly meaningful response.

The Crossroads Project is a collaboration of the Fry Street String Quartet with climate physicist Dr. Robert Davies. This evocative performance about global sustainability weaves art and science together through music, prose, and stunning visual imagery -- photographs by renowned environmental photographer Garth Lenz and paintings by Rebecca Allan, and the quartet’s commission of “Rising Tide” by American composer Laura Kaminsky. An inspired and candid, yet artistic response to one of the great challenges the world has ever known.
