Join us for a walk in the woods
with renowned composer Toby Twining as we discuss his monumental
choral work, the Chrysalid Requiem. Our topics include spiraling
notation, Ben Johnston, the New York scene, pragmatic approaches
for performance, Dies irae, juvenilia, guide tracks, technology,
and accessibility. Our first conversation takes place with Toby
Twining, Thomas Schuerich, and Jacob Barton, and then with Stephen
Weigel and Toby Twining. We also have Patreon-only bonus content
for this episode featuring Bill Alves (who analyzed the Requiem)
and Stephen Weigel: https://www.patreon.com/posts/10-2-7-bonus-on-32885743
