Life Through Loss is an album for anyone who has experienced grief, composed and performed by a musician with a deep insight into the grieving process.
For the last few years, Garreth Brooke has been volunteering as a ‘Trauerbegleiter’. These ‘grief companions’ sit with people who are grieving and help them to explore the complex of emotions they are experiencing. It’s not therapy, just companionship, but it gives a profound glimpse into how people cope with loss.
Grief doesn’t end, it just changes. People learn to live with it. The intense emotions of the first days often die down over the course of the next weeks and months, but can rise up at unexpected moments. This can be hard to manage, especially in a society where grief has become strangely taboo.
This is an album about how to live through loss. It’s partly a personal reflection on the composer’s own evolving grief for his suicidal mother, including his early guilt at failing to “save” her and his struggle to figure out how to feel about someone who died through suicide. It’s also a distillation of the many conversations that he has shared with other people who are already grieving or fear bereavement.
Buried at the core of all these conversations, beneath the sadness, is love. There’s no grief without love.
