With Halloween approaching in just a couple days, the sounds veer toward the spooky on this episode of Extra Eclectic. Steve Seel plays us Michael Daugherty’s “The Tell Tale Harp” (Edgar Allen Poe reference very much indented) from his Philadelphia Stories, as well as Anna Clyne’s This Midnight Hour, and the eerie sound of the Latvian folk instrument known as the svilpaunieki appears in Jakabs Jancevskis’ Lignum. Listen now!
