Don some good hiking boots — we’re ascending the mountains in the first hour of Extra Eclectic and encountering some of the native fauna as we go. Host Steve Seel shares Jane Antonia Cornish’s Sierra, Alexandra Gardner’s Vixen and Jennifer Higdon’s Coyote Nights, as well as Iranian composer Kayan Kalhor’s Mountains are Far Away. In the second hour, we hear music by Peteris Vasks, Helen Grime, Gabriella Smith and more.
