On the next Modern Notebook: Tyler Kline shares an orchestral work by Veroníque Vaka titled Lendh, which is inspired by the Icelandic town of Krýsuvík and its nearby geothermal areas. Also, music by Akemi Naito and Jakub Ciupinski, and Anne Leilehua Lanzilotti performs music for viola and electronics by Anna Thorvaldsdottir inspired “by the desire of calm and focus in chaos.”
