On the next Modern Notebook with Tyler Kline: How do we process loss, or even violence — collectively or alone? In his piece Manusa, composer Dorian Wallace turns to the five stages of grief as a guide, crafting a deeply human meditation through sound.
Then: After dark, the world transforms — and in Moth x Human, composer Ellie Wilson gives voice to that unseen world. Using real moth activity data, she crafts an interspecies performance where field recordings, instruments, and sonified biodiversity blend into a vivid nocturnal soundscape.
Also in this episode: music by Beyza Yazgan, Huang Ruo performed by the Shanghai Philharmonic Orchestra, Kati Agócs performed by The Claremont Trio, Anthony Joseph Lanman performed by pianist Holly Roadfeldt, and Christopher Cerrone performed by Lorelei Ensemble.
