Two-time Grammy-winning composer Christopher Tin talks about his incredibly popular song Baba Yetu, his conducting debut at Carnegie Hall, and his newest album: To Shiver the Sky.
Christopher Tin is well known for Baba Yetu and Sogno di Volare, the themes to the video games Civilization IV and Civilization VI. Baba Yetu was immortalized as the first composition written originally for a video game to win a Grammy, and around it, Christopher built his debut album: Calling All Dawns. Now Christopher Tin is releasing his third album, To Shiver the Sky, built around Sogno di Volare and a musical exploration of mankind's conquest of the sky. Fresh off his conducting debut at Carnegie Hall, he discusses the oratorio that became Kickstarter's highest funded classical album ever, how it’s being developed and influenced by his fans, and gives us insights into the composition processes.

Devipravaha, Waloyo Yamoni, Baby Yetu, Sogno di Volare, Mado Kara Mieru -- he's my favorite composer of all time. And the part where he says that he writes for the human voice--I think that's it. That's the reason we love his music so much, because it invokes us, it invokes Humanity's voice in a way instrumental music alone cannot do.

Hey Google, Can we have more discussions about purpose of music and art in general in the age of postmodernism? Maybe Google came up with some ideas just by analysing all that data and knows what the trends of purpose are. Maybe that Macedonian girl has some thoughts on it.
