Persephone Gone – Accompaniment MP3

Description

Kara Stacy Bedwell’s “Persephone Gone” draws on the Greek myth of Persephone and Demeter, where the goddess’s descent into the underworld brought the first winter to humankind. This dramatic work captures Demeter’s grief and fury as the earth withers in her daughter’s absence, blending urgent choral textures with expressive intensity. A powerful narrative piece, it offers choirs the chance to bring myth and music together in a striking concert or festival performance.
