The Tällberg FoundationThe music was recorded in front of  a live audience in Boston on 19 October\, but is premiered worldwide now.\n\nAlso performing will be a band led by saxophonist Tom Challenger with Tara Cunningham (guitar)\,  Adam Merrell (drums)\n\n------------------------------------------------\n\n“Jazz defies convention through adaptability and improvisation\, generating that specialsense of surprise and melodic invention that is similar to what we urgently need tobend the dramatic arc of climate change. These amazing\, world class artists arededicating their talents to help shape a message of hope towards a sustainable futurefor humanity and our planet through their music\,” said Fiorenzo Omenetto\, whoconceived and is leading the initiative for the Tällberg Foundation.Omenetto added\, “Climate change” isn’t really about climate. It’s about people\,migration\, food\, water\, access\, health\, education\, and fairness of opportunity. It’sabout our world as we know it\, and our social fabric as we live it. And if we don't fixour climate now\, there will be too much to fix”.Boston’s GBH\, one of America’s most recognizable media brands\, which operates intelevision\, radio\, and online streaming and creates a vast array of cultural and newscontent\, is a core partner in this initiative.
