This New Sounds brings us something from cellists Zoe Keating, Erik Friedlander, and Brent Arnold. The San Francisco-based Keating loops layers upon layers of cello to create her own one-woman orchestra. We'll hear from her latest, "Into the Trees."
We'll also sample from Erik Friedlander's latest digital release, "Alchemy," a vast tapestry of scraping, plucking and bowing. Also, there's music by the songwriting cellist, former Seattlist Brent Arnold, from his album of lonely gems, "An Albatross and a Half." Plus, Ralph Stanley sings the old hymn "Jacob's Vision" on cellist Dave Eggar's new album, "Kingston Morning," and more.

Piano Insides
Explore the sounds of a piano's insides on this New Sounds program. From the prepared piano to the bowed and/or plucked piano strings inside the body of the beast, there are sure to be unusual sounds galore. Listen to Ergo, an electro-acoustic trio - somehow both slinky and spacey - with trombone, prepared piano, drums, and special guests on guitar.
