    Maria Schneider composed “Bulería, Soleá y Rumba” in the wake of a cancer diagnosis.

    Season 2, Episode 3: Sa-Roc and Margaret Burroughs’s Sleeping Boy

    Rapper Sa-Roc’s music speaks to different aspects of Black experience, including the vulnerability of many Black kids—similar to the boy in Margaret Burroughs’s linocut, who hides himself. Her song “Forever” invites listeners not to hide, but to shine and share their “inner light” with the world.

    Season 2: Episode 5: Peter Sheppard Skærved and Hieronymus Bosch’s “Death and the Miser”

    Violinist Peter Sheppard Skærved and National Gallery director Kaywin Feldman discuss Hieronymus Bosch’s “Death and the Miser” and its symbolism of contrast: light and dark, life and death. Skærved plays a 17th-century violin sonatina that echoes similar contrasts of sensuality and fatality, beauty and mortality. Still haven’t subscribed to our YouTube channels?

    Season 2: Episode 2: Jenny Scheinman and El Greco’s "Laocoön"

    In “Sand Dipper,” jazz violinist Jenny Scheinman creates an abstract and overwhelming world. This music, Scheinman says, sounds how El Greco’s painting looks. And it feels like the question on Laocoön’s face as he looks up for the last time.

    Season 2: Episode 1: Dom Flemons and Marc Chagall’s "Orphée"

    Orphée depicts many tragedies, but songwriter Dom Flemons finds the joy in it: it resolves in the beautiful scene of two lovers embracing. Flemons pairs it with the tranquil “Blue Butterfly.” The instrumental song helps the emotional weight sink in. Still haven’t subscribed to our YouTube channels?
