Music

• We hear Waltz from the score to Angels & Insects.

• Movements IV and II from David Liptak’s Serenade for Alto Sax and Strings.

• A bit of Violin Solo no. 1 from Peter Broderick.

• Some of Zucht 2 from Machienfabrik.

• A bit of Origami Tulips from Lullatone.

• Unseen Forces from Justin Walter.

• Midnight Moon from Annalisa Tornfelt and Gideon Freudman

• Ida Lupino from Paul Bley’s Changes album from 1965.

• And Lost Fur (Reprise) from the score to Where the Wild Things Are.

Notes

• Many of my favorite things I read for this piece were contemporary newspaper tributes upon her death in 1911. They’re easy to find.

• By far the most useful thing I read was Lenore Skomal’s *The Lighthouse Keeper’s Daughter: The Remarkable True Story of American Heroine, Ida Lewis. *It’s very well researched and highly readable.
