Spirit’s House For Bassoon (unaccompanied) 7 minutes 45 seconds
A language dies with its last native speaker. Current estimates place the total number of spoken languages at 6000-7000, with projected loss at 50-90% by 2100. This piece was inspired by reading about several different people who are the last fluent speakers of their native languages. I imagine the histories and stories of an entire culture that these people carry with them, the memories or "spirits" of an entire people group who is no longer living, and how we all embody the history of our predecessors in various ways. -Bonnie McLarty Lawrence, Kansas (2017)
