What is Synaesthesia and Trauma in Music about?

The essay explores the relationship between sound, trauma, and memory in the works of composers Bunita Marcus and Andra McCartney, both of whom experienced childhood sexual abuse. It discusses how their compositions evoke traumatic memories through synaesthetic experiences, where sounds trigger visceral recollections of past violations. The author examines the implications of these sonic memories in the context of trauma research and the power of music to access and articulate buried experiences.
