Episode 27 features Seth Parker Woods, a University at Buffalo Center for Diversity Innovation Distinguished Visiting Scholar. Dr. Woods speaks about the cello and its use in classical music and performance pieces, including the ice cello. He discusses the Fluxus movement, Black composers, and using music and performance to create pieces that reflect events and social issues such as police brutality and the emotions they cause. This episode includes two pieces at the end - Bach’s Allemande, and Pierre Alexandre Tremblay’s asinglewordisnotenough - performed by Dr. Woods.
