THE SOUND OF HOPE: edge of darkness, brink of light

For many, the last few months have felt hopeless. The cold & dark of winter, groundswell of totalitarianism, and regular seasonal malaise has left us straining to find anything good to hold onto. As Winter creeps towards the Spring, we’ve been seeking The Sound of Hope. Artists, musicians, and sound-based practitioners from around the world were invited to share their own interpretation of this sound, reflecting the place where their optimism resides and flourishes in an ever-expanding ripple of positive possibilities.

ARTISTS:
AnimaeNoctis
Domenico De Simone
Enor D
The Locals Trio
Mark Hanslip
Midnite Gossip
Stephen Roddy


As part of today's show, we invited dear friends to send us a voice memo describing a sound that gives them hope. We’ve sprinkled their messages throughout the program. Thanks to Audrey Lane, Chad, Genevieve, Jennifer, Jim, Joanne, Marnie, Monica, Ramin, Rebecca, and Susan for describing sounds that bring them hope across today’s episode.
