A Note for Nature

“The beauty of A Note for Nature is that it reminds us of the organic links between our living world and our music.” - The Irish Times

1x1 Hour for RTÉ


Winner - Royal Television Society ROI Awards

Nominated - SILBERSALZ Science and Media Awards

A Note for Nature is both a celebration and a call for help. Over an hour, through music from the RTÉ Concert Orchestra and spoken word from an array of talents, we reveal some of Ireland’s most fragile landscapes and the beleaguered animals that somehow manage to survive there. Our planet is in trouble. It’s never been so clear that we need to refocus our priorities and Ireland is no exception. The influence of our natural world on music has long been acknowledged. A Note for Nature now turns this on its head-it is time for music to give back to nature.
