Bonnie Cutsforth-Huber

I have always been an advocate of new music, so when composer Martha Hill Duncan proposed a collaboration, I was absolutely thrilled. I have written poetry since I was a child, but this project marked the first time I wrote poetry with the knowledge that the poems would be sung. I decided to “write what I know,” so to speak. I grew up on a farm in Saskatchewan, Canada, and I am honored to share the tenacity and beauty of my heritage through these songs.
