Episode 4 of Reverberations explores the question: “Can music go out of style?” Composer Juri Seo’s Obsolete Music album suggests that music is ageless. Obsolete Music is Seo’s collaboration with the flexible ensemble Latitude 49. Each track on the record pays homage to a form or style from the past (e.g. “Fugue” or “Ostinato”) in order to reimagine it. Seo’s own decision to become a musician is rooted in an important encounter with Bach and species counterpoint at the age of 11. The episode begins with Seo explaining this epiphany: “My mind and body came together through a fugue.”
