A Listener’s Guide to Cellista’s “Transfigurations”

A Listener's Guide to Cellista's Transfigurations is the accompaniment to Cellista's album of experimental classical music Transfigurations. Cellista provides a critical companion text to her music that gives her listeners an opportunity to understand the compositional process behind her album. She offers a set of tools and "transfigurative" essays that guide curious ears through a musicological and at times, confessional journey. Readers will also find essays that plumb the subject of transfiguration through autobiographical reflection by the philosopher Dr. Frank Seeburger.
