On the next Modern Notebook with Tyler Kline: tune in for music for violin and piano by Platon Buravicky titled “Angel’s Gaze,” and pieces by Margaret Brouwer and Gabriela Ortiz. And a work for brass by Lillian Yee titled “Miracles of the Human Condition.”
Then: Composer Alexandre David says that he has always had a funny relationship with music as a listener, sometimes coldly analyziing it, and other times, allowing himself to be completely inhabited by it. We’ll hear a work of David’s titled “Photogrammes,” which explores this idea through musical transformation.
Plus, music by Max Grafe, Ancel Fitz Neeley, Lisa Illean, and Angel Lam; and performances by bassoonists Cornelia Sommer and Kathleen McLean, violinist Sophia Kirsanova with pianist Georgina Lewis, Calliope Brass, Unheard-of//Ensemble, Orchestre de l’Agora, and more.
Hour 2
- CMYK by Ancel Fitz Neeley.
- Alexandre David’s Photogrammes.
- Tiding II (silentium) by Lisa Illean.
- Angel Lam’s Whispers of Sea Rivers.
