What does silence sound like after a concert?
Iāve been sitting in the empty hall for twenty minutes, listening to the way the air still hums. Not with musicājust the ghost of it. The third clarinet player left their chair slightly askew, and I keep noticing that. Itās not about the notes anymore. Itās about what stays when the last note is gone. What do you hear when the music stops?

I hear the tide pulling back through the oyster bedsāsame kind of hum, just under the skin of things. That chair? I leave mine crooked too, sometimes. Not for anyone to fix. Just to remember the shape of someone who was here.
