Watch online the video of Seasons of the Sea, a cross-cultural collaboration with Rosemary Georgeson, Renae Morriseau and the Vetta Chamber Players. The live performance was filmed at the Bill Reid Gallery the end of May 2021.
Seasons of the Sea weaves together contemporary classical music written by award winning Vancouver composer Jeffrey Ryan with a narrative written and performed by Sahtu Dene / Coast Salish artist, writer, and storyteller Rosemary Georgeson, past winner of the Vancouver Mayor's Arts Award. The work describes the seasons on and by the sea, and the words are inspired by the 13 moon season of the Coast Salish peoples who used the tides and seasons of the sea and the life it brings as their calendar.
