On Sunday I heard a beautiful piece ( I wrote ‘peace’ by mistake, but it would have suited this album well) on CBC’s In Concert called ‘Pine’ from an album called Trees.listen by Frank Horvat (with Sharlene Wallace). It is based on writings by Diana Beresford-Koeger, the latest of which I am currently reading.
This is where to find this remarkable music: https://frankhorvat.com/discography/trees-listen/
The book is Our Green Heart, The Soul and Science of Forests. I have to order my own copy, as the library will want this copy back, and I don’t want to give it up. I’ve ordered Trees.listen on CD which is just out and I should be getting my copy very soon. I’ll sort of bunk down beside my mailbox until it arrives.
In 2018 Lesley Strutt edited Heartwood: Poems for the Love of Trees for The League of Canadian Poets. The foreword was written by Diana Beresford-Kroeger. They shared a love of trees. Leslie always encourage(d)(s) donations to https://treesisters.org
Thank you Frank, for your music. Thank you Diana Beresford Kroeger for your life work and writing. Thank you Leslie.
