Depth. Emotion. Momentum. These are just a few of the elements that music adds to a story. But how exactly does one make music for a podcast? Threshold is a Peabody Award-winning podcast that explores stories about the relationships between humans and the natural world, diving into the intersections of science, politics, culture, and social justice. It features all-original scoring by Montana-based composer Travis Yost. How does Travis score these stories about people experiencing climate change, about tribal sovereignty, the Greenland Ice Sheet, bison, and more? On Thursday, November 19, join us for Soundtracks for Podcasts, a virtual event that will give you an exclusive inside look into the collaborative process that shapes the music of Threshold. The event will feature a live conversation between Travis Yost and Amy Martin, Threshold’s founder and executive producer, a special live performance by Travis, and a Q&A. Whether you’re a podcaster, musician, composer, or just a fan curious to hear a conversation between two creators, join us on November 19th for a front row seat to hear the stories behind Threshold’s score.
