FOUR WORLD PREMIERES commissioned by the people! New York’s electric chamber ensemble Bang on a Can All-Stars take on new works by Swiss ambient-funk-pianist-composer Nik Bärtsch, the innovative UK electro-acoustic composer Oscar Bettison, Boston composer-inventor Christine Southworth and New York’s David Longstreth, also known widely for his ground-breaking indie rock band Dirty Projectors.

PLUS, a recently commissioned work by Michael Nyman for film by the celebrated 1920s NY photographer Paul Strand and a selection from the group’s acclaimed live arrangement of Brian Eno’s ambient classic Music for Airports. The PCF is a radical partnership between artists and audiences to commission works from adventurous composers. For more info: www.bangonacan.org
