Environs is a series bringing together music across genres that embraces texture, improvisation, and the environment.
On this edition we feature the music of Willow, blending biosonification and songcraft in conversation with a plant; “Glassbirds,” an innovative work blending vocal techniques and electronics, by Freja Højland Høj, a classical vocalist and experimental performer with numerous acclaimed performances in opera and new music; the meditative keyboard excursions of host Leftpop, and the eclectic sonic journeys of paper gem.

Willow is an environmental scientist, interdisciplinary artist, and musician from Brooklyn, NY. Willow weaves intimate art-pop, field recordings, and musical improvisation made in collaboration with plants and fungi through a process called biosonification to immerse the listener in a provocative sonic ecosystem and inspire connection between ourselves and the living, breathing Earth.
