The EcoVoice Project- Missa Laudato Si (world premiere)

  • Jo Ann Rooney Hall 1020 West Sheridan Road Chicago, IL, 60660 United States (map)

Missa Laudato Si’ is a new work written by Dongryul Lee in the spirit of Pope Francis’s 2015 encyclical, Laudato Si’, which calls on humanity to urgently address the climate crisis. In the form of a Mass, Missa Laudato Si’ contemplates climate change and caring for the earth by intertwining the Latin Mass text with prayers, poems, and texts about contaminated soil and water, and all the threatened creatures living under the climate and plastic crises, including “the tragic effects of environmental degradation on the lives of the world’s poorest.”
