    The Music Folder #25 | Daniel Blumberg

    For the 25th episode of The Music Folder, we had the pleasure of speaking with Academy Award–winning composer and multidisciplinary artist Daniel Blumberg (The Brutalist), in conversation with NTS Radio host and musicologist Francesco Fusaro. The conversation traces how Blumberg’s recent film scores — from The Testament of Ann Lee, inspired by Shaker song recordings and books, to Gianfranco Rosi’s Below the Clouds — emerge from a network of archives, both visible and hidden: devotional melodies and nigunim, personal notebooks and sketchbooks, improvised sessions, live venues, quarries, and even the body as a living archive shaped by place. Across the conversation, he reflects on how these layers of memory inform a musical and visual practice that approaches each project as an opportunity for continual exploration and reinvention.
