contributed poetry for this work: Margaret Atwood, Donia Blumenfeld
Clenman, Magie Dominic, Bernice Lever, Doris Hillis, John Steckley,

Alchemy (Adagietto), (Magie Dominic) The poem Alchemy is based on two expressions - the destruction of our wilderness, our waters, our sky, our planet - in essence - ourselves. The second half of Alchemy is an expression of compassion and hope - a door of gracious planetary healing through which we can walk together - we must walk together.
Choral Movement 9, Alchemy: finale, second elaboration of principal theme, measures 102 to 111 (of 134)
