CLIMATE SCIENCE in MAINE
HOPE BEGINS WITH TRUTH
In 2019, the Maine Science Festival commissioned composer Lucas Richman to create a new symphonic work addressing climate change in the Gulf of Maine, one of the fastest-warming bodies of water in the world.
When the scheduled premiere of The Warming Sea was delayed due to the onset of COVID-19 in March 2020, the musicians of the Bangor Symphony Orchestra and vocalists around the country came together remotely to record the work’s final anthem, “Hope Begins With Truth.”
