    Rhiannon Giddens’s album Hope Is the Thing with Feathers was inspired by the beauty of people coming together and drawing strength from each other.

A video for the title track, capturing the creation of the album cover artwork by Uzoma Samuel Anyanwu, is also out now; you can watch it here.

    Anthony Roth Costanzo's recording of John Dowland's "In Darkness Let Me Dwell," from his upcoming album, Countertenor, is out now. Lutist Dušan Balarin joined for the performance, and Shantell Martin made a video, which you can watch here. "My favorite line of the song is, ‘The walls of marble, black, shall weep,’" Costanzo says. "I felt it was an existential representation of where we are in terms of a moment in this country right now, something that classical music can actually do very well. It’s very personal, but it’s speaking to a larger thing. What does that darkness feel like?"
