<strong>ICE</strong>: KEEPER OF ANCIENT SECRETS<br />
Movement 4 (Finale) from Symphony #1 - <strong>H2O</strong><br />
Glacial Ice is the "keeper of ancient secrets" and has been researched for hundreds of years.<br />
We learn much from samples taken from deep within ancient ice and can look back into the deep past.<br />
There are lessons to be gleaned by us all in the information kept silently entombed for aeons, and we<br />
must use this information to find a collaborative way forwards with our intended slowing of climate<br />
change and the best utilisation of the limited resources remaining on our planet.<br />
On a more artistic level, Ice is both full of majesty and strength. It is incredibly beautiful and yet<br />
can be dangerous to us. It can be paper-thin or kilometres thick. It is a material of great mystery.<br />
I hope this final movement of <strong>H2O</strong> not only concludes the Symphony in a towering wall<br />
of sound, but brings the various forms of water back to our minds as component parts of<br />
what eventually becomes Ice.<br />
