Digital Project
Peace I Leave With You
About the Project
AVÉ’s digital projects are an essential initiative that allows for the creation of discrete pieces of art that preserve the commissioning work undertaken by the ensemble. This visual collaboration between dancers, filmmakers and musicians symbolised an emergence from grief and into light and brought the exquisite piece of music, composed by ensemble Tenor Andrew Goodwin, to life.
A note: from Andrew Goodwin
I composed “Peace I Leave with you” during lockdown after finding the verse, my father’s favourite from the Bible, on the back of the order of service from his funeral many years ago. It was an incredibly moving experience for me as it enabled me to grieve for him after so many years. Having it performed by some of Australia’s finest voices is a wonderful privilege, but having it also filmed so beautifully is beyond anything I could have imagined and benefits the memory of my beautiful father, Frank Charles Goodwin.
