A couple of years ago, a group of Canadian indie-rockers (some play in Arcade Fire) decided to write and play their own chamber music. Their new album As Seen Through Windows has the epic sweep of a film score. Kurt talks with violinist Sarah Neufeld and bassist Richard Reed Parry, and they perform live in the studio.

Fantastic interview. Love you, Alan! You were one of the main influences for me to get back into acting later ...

Really difficult to convey this as a "sound story" and it was done beautifully. Really compelling.
