Métier Records proudly presents “Resonating Earth,” the latest album by acclaimed pianist Carolyn Enger. Resulting from a multimedia project, developed in collaboration with producer and video artist Elliott Forrest, visual artist Myles Aronowitz, and photographer/activist J. Henry Fair, the work addresses the urgent climate crisis through the transformative power of music and art. Resonating Earth emerged from Enger’s profound connection to nature and her dedication to environmental activism. Living in a wooden house outside Manhattan, Enger draws inspiration from the natural vibrations of her seven-foot Steinway piano, her personal yoga and meditation practices, and her profound love for the planet. This album, born from those inspirations, offers a sonic environment conducive to contemplation and openness, featuring a diverse collection of compositions that span multiple generations and schools of thought. The album opens and closes with works by Meredith Monk, whose pieces “Quarry Waltz” and “Ellis Island” frame the program with themes of totalitarianism and the promise of freedom. Interwoven throughout are compositions by various composers - each bringing unique perspectives and emotional depth to the project.
