"Darwin's Origin of Species is not only one of the most important scientific works of all time, but one of the most beautifully written. In The Origin Cycle, eight contemporary composers from Australia set fragments of Darwin's great book to music, for performance by soprano Jane Sheldon and a chamber ensemble.This one took place in Halifax and the Maritime Museum of the Atlantic and featured the regions best chamber musicians."

Listen to a CBC Concerts on Demand recording. I was playing flute in the ensemble. And if you're wondering; they used a picture from a different performance on their website!
