Living Classical with Tyler Kline for February 8 - 14, 2026

On this edition of Living Classical with Tyler Kline: Nobody Know by Adolphus Hailstork is a concert aria shaped by perspective – a "song from the other cross." Drawing on spirituals and biblical echoes, the music centers a voice that speaks in the language it has known, asking for recognition and redemption.

Then: Imagine music moving with urgency – driven, physical, and full of sharp contrasts, as if tracing a landscape shaped by force and memory. That energy sits at the heart of Hunger by Errollyn Wallen, a work built from imagined terrain and shifting intensity.

Plus music by Jonathan Bailey Holland, Eleanor Alberga, Jonathan Bingham, Jens Ibsen, Trevor Weston, Nokuthula Ngwenyama, and Valerie Coleman.

Featuring performances by Cecilia Kang, clarinet with Angela Park, piano; Kenneth Overton, baritone with Harlem Chamber Players; Teagan Faran, violin; Jennifer Grim, flute; Michael Sheppard, piano; Transient Canvas; National Brass Ensemble; ECCE Ensemble; and The Continuum Ensemble with Ensemble X.
