Barbara Hannigan is a world-renowned conductor, soprano, and performer
whose work pushes the boundaries of classical and contemporary music. Known
for her fearless interpretations and deeply expressive performances,
Barbara has built a career that defies convention and celebrates the
transformative power of sound.

In this episode, Barbara and I discuss her recent album Electric Fields,
which offers modern arrangements of centuries-old vocal music. At the heart
of the album are the compositions of Hildegard of Bingen — a 12th-century
mystic, composer, and visionary whose sacred works still resonate with
profound clarity today.

In keeping with the season theme, we explore Barbara’s experience of 
finding flow in those transcendent, improvisational moments when the music
seems to move through her rather than from her — and how this state of
creative surrender shapes both her artistry and her life.
