E14 - In Conversation with Linda Buckley

Vocal Chords

Composer Linda Buckley is Iarla's guest in this episode of Vocal Chords. Linda's music draws on a sonic landscape of natural and made sounds and she frequently uses the human voice in her work, often singing herself in wordless cadences. Linda writes for both electronic and acoustic forces, and the diverse instrumentations of her work include Javanese Gamelan, choir, multi-channel tape, prepared piano and orchestra. Linda and Iarla discuss childhood, inspirations and influences in this candid, compelling conversation.
