One of the goals for the symphony was to convey a sense of hope and human resilience. We've partnered with Brian Eno's charity organization, EARTH/PERCENT to use the piece to raise money for climate action. We have also teamed up with filmmaker Garrick Stoner to make a short film with the symphony featuring 8 different climate action organizations around the world. A portion of the proceeds from this project will go to support Earth Percent. To make an additional donation please visit the link below.
EarthPercent’s mission is to unleash the power of music in service of the planet. EarthPercent is a charity offering simple ways for artists, music-related organizations and fans to pledge a small percentage of their incomes to be directed to environmental and climate justice organizations dealing with the climate crisis.
