Songs of Trees


Songs of Trees is a set of three works for voice and piano on poems by renowned Canadian Indigenous poet E. Pauline Johnson (1861-1913). The poems chosen for this set are all inspired by the beauty of nature (trees in particular) and explore themes of rebirth, memory, and resilience.

This cycle was commissioned and premiered by baritone Jason Klippenstein on November 13, 2017, at Roy Barnett Recital Hall (University of British Columbia) in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada.
