For this New Sounds program, hear songs to the moon, about the moon, and higher than the moon. From Schoenberg to Pink Floyd, along with songs about Luna and lunacy by Savina Yannatou, John Cale, and Susana Baca, this nocturnal hour will be packed full of ebbs and flows. Plus, there’s music by Osvaldo Golijov, Daniel Melingo and Nick Drake, to name a few more.
