On the next Modern Notebook with Tyler Kline: Good and evil, reality and illusion — composer Melia Watras explores these intertwined opposites in “Doppelgänger Dances.” The piece plays with musical doubles and variations, drawn from her earlier composition William Wilson, inspired by Edgar Allan Poe’s haunting tale of duality.
Then: “Still Leaning Towards This Machine” — that’s the subtitle of Rune Glerup’s Clarinet Quintet, a piece shaped by influences from Beethoven and Boulez to Beckett and Bukowski. Across three movements, it shimmers with tension, breathes with stillness, and pulses with restless energy, blending acoustic and electronic textures.
