Gingko Biloba was written as a gift for Mina Miller and Music of Remembrance, to premiere on their virtual Gala December 6, 2020 with baritone Erich Parce and pianist Jessica Choe.
MOR’s 2020-21 season was titled “The Endurance of Hope,” so Mina suggested I reference the gingko tree in my song, as its deep roots and resilience enabled the species to survive even the atomic blast at Hiroshima. I found this Goethe poem, written for the actress Marianne von Willemer, to be perfect for song, due to its simple language combined with a complexity of thought.
