Commonwealth Natural Wonders in Music

As part of the Commonwealth's celebrations for HM The Queen's Platinum Jubilee, the Commonwealth Secretariat has again commissioned us to draw creatives from across the Commonwealth together to mark this historic event.
This video features a ​new piece of music co created by Commonwealth musicians, composers & creatives, and illustrated by Commonwealth artists & photographers, to demonstrate the variety & wide array of incredible wild & scenic locations around the Commonwealth, celebrating & sharing the diverse environmental riches in the Commonwealth.
This really unique project is where the piece of music itself has been created by ideas and influences sent in from all over the Commonwealth, so influences from traditional & folk tunes are incorporated alongside sounds from nature, and musical compositions created by individuals composing in their home countries.
​All of this is illustrated by wonderful photos and art works of stunning natural sight & locations showing off just some of the incredible sights the Commonwealth has to offer.

​“thank you for giving me the opportunity to represent Sri Lanka as composer contributor with our traditional song and to making me a part of the fabulous ensemble as a piano performer. 
As a 13 year old boy, this is the biggest achievement I have ever accomplished in my life. My heart-felt thanks”

“Awesome, thank you so much! and am very glad to be one of the  artist in the Dionysus Ensemble music project, and the whole world will watch this beautiful  project.”

“It is very inspiring to see people from so many different places come together like this & what better way to have it done than through music! I hope to be part of other projects in the future.“

“You guys have done a great and meaningful project for all of us! “
