On this episode of A Curious Ear, we explore the sounds of winter’s stillness, “the whispering air” as Walt Whitman puts it. We’ll hear field recordings from frozen tennis courts and Northern Icelandic towns, as well as purely instrumental works that explore the depths of winter. Music by Kory Reeder, Carol Robinson, Lia Kohl, and Kate Carr. Full show notes available here.

"A Curious Ear" hosted by Chris Cresswell explores the unlikely connections between experimental, contemporary classical, ambient, noise, and other musics. The show airs at 11 pm, on the second Saturday of every month on WCNY-FM, as part of WCNY’s Tomorrow’s Choices Today. Archived episodes are hosted on MixCloud.

"Mind the Gap" presents the WGXC listener with selections of sound art, radio and transmission art, experimental music, and more that do not have regular show times in the broadcast schedule. These selections are chosen and produced by Wave Farm staff, WGXC Volunteer Programmers, others in the Wave Farm community, and beyond.
