Lyre Mantle for Ukraine
/Dear friends of the lyre,
Due to recent and ongoing events taking place in Ukraine, the wish has been expressed to me to reawaken our international Lyre Mantle initiative with the attached composition by Christian Giersch, Kleines Gebet in Klang für Leier rund um die Erde ("Short prayer in sound for Lyre surrounding the Earth"). This powerful piece of music dedicated to the memory of Channa Seidenberg could very well also be played to address so much else that is going on in the world right now that calls for our renewed musical efforts. The sounding of this musical prayer throughout the world will also serve to strengthen our unity and awareness of each other across the globe, transcending time and space.
With warm greetings,
Veronika Roemer
