Episode Synopsis
On the next Modern Notebook with Tyler Kline: What happens when our obsession with spectacle turns dangerous? Michael Abels’s Nope Suite, drawn from his score written for Jordan Peele’s genre-blending film, rides the line between sci-fi, horror, Western, and family drama — with a score that gallops, pursues, and holds space for both awe and fear.Then: Waves crash, skies open — and the piano becomes a landscape. In Pacific Triptych, Peter Scott Lewis captures the drama and majesty of the Pacific Coast across three movements, with a sense of scale that feels orchestral, even in its quietest moments.Also featured this week are works by Ney Rosauro, Niloufar Nourbakhsh, Arturo Sandoval, Anna Meredith, Judd Greenstein, Naji Hakim, Tyondai Braxton, Theresa Wong, and Yue Song. Performances by Duo AYA, cellist Benjamin Larsen, pianist Ava Nazar, the Wisconsin Chamber Orchestra, the National Brass Ensemble, Ligeti Quartet, vocalist Michelle O’Rourke, Ficino Ensemble, cellist Gwendeline Lumaret, Stargaze, pianist Blair McMillen, clarinetist Jeff Anderle, and Crash Ensemble.
