A work for youth choir - and the young at heart - celebrating the beauty and wonder of our world through three contrasting perspectives. A diver plunges into the mysteries of the ocean depths, a mountaineer climbs towards the edge of the sky, and an astronaut aboard the International Space Station gazes back at the Earth from afar in awe at its fragile grandeur.

Through soaring melodies and luminous harmonies, the work traces a musical journey through sea, land and space, capturing a spirit of curiosity, exploration and wonder.

The work was premiered in 2017 by the Halifax Young Singers, directed by Lynn Meredith.
