Description
Radical new music: 3 hours, 3 themes! In hour one we focus on improvised music, including new avant-rock from Imperial Triumphant, avant-Javanese from Genta Nirvana, a cross-continental jam between Hamid Drake (happy 65th!), Peter Brötzmann & Maâlem Moukhtar Gania (on guembri), and historical landmarks from Frank Zappa and Marion Brown nearing their 50th BDs. In hour two we shift our attention to new opera as Anthony Gatto channels Gertrude Stein and Flannery O’Connor, Missy Mazzoli communes with prairie homesteaders and Christian Asplund revisits the letter aria. Finally, in hour three we turn to new electroacoustic tracks, including the latest from Robert Millis, Bellows, Sonologyst, The Broken Penis Orchestra and Gloom Mountain Gospel. Three previews and 14 new releases!
Also featured: Sylvie Courvoisier, Otomo Yoshihide, Chris Pitsiokos, Stefan Östersjö, John Oliver, Illusion Of Safety, Moth Cock, Steve Layton, Anthony Braxton, Chick Corea, JACK Quartet, Zeitgeist and ICE.
