“Shortly after 6 am local time on Sunday March 22, 2020, a strong earthquake shook the Croatian capital, Zagreb, bringing much of the population on to the street after social distancing regulations to prevent the spread of coronavirus had been put in place. It was the ‘biggest’ earthquake in 140 years and caused widespread damage, including to the city’s cathedral and the evacuation of hospitals.” – The Guardian
Dario Cebic who was born in Zagreb was profoundly affected and saddened by the tragedy. “I began work on this piece the same day, and one week later completed this original work for flute choir.” – Dario Cebic, Professor of Composition
