Rainbow of Light was written by Linda Lamon after being inspired by speakers such as the late Professor Stephen Hawking, Richard Dawkins and Dr Brian May, at the Starmus Festival of Science and Arts, where she also met soprano Katerina Mina. http://www.starmus.com
The classical version, recorded by http://www.katerinamina.com, went on to represent UNESCO for their International Year of Light and an updated classical cross-over version was performed by Ms Mina for the International Day of Light inaugural celebrations at UNESCO in Paris, now held every year on May 16th. https://www.lightday.org/seethelight
The single has been released to support NHS Charities Together https://www.nhscharitiestogether.co.uk during the Covid-19 crisis and is available from digital stores, including Amazon, Spotify and iTunes.
