Coming up on Modern Notebook with Tyler Kline: Music of life, love, and loss is coming up on the next Modern Notebook, with a work by Anna Clyne composed for her mother called “Witihin Her Arms.” It is music for strings that interweaves to form a lament that is not unlike music from the English Renaissance.


Then, Tyler is joined by pianist Eunmi Ko for a discussion about her latest album, “12 Views on Life,” and music by Han Hitchen and Soobin Lee.


Listen for that, as well as music by Beyza Yazgan, Alex Berko, Jorge Humberto Pinzón Malagón, Cassie Wieland, Evan Williams, Kojiro Umezaki, Raven Chacon, and others; and performances by tenor Michael Jones with Conspirare, cellist Santiago Canon-Valencia, clarinetist Andy Hudson, pianist Michael Mizrahi, HUB New Music, and more.
