Late Night at National Sawdust: Chaos Theory

Podcast and live radio collide in an evening of music inspired by
fractals, dynamic systems, feedback loops and nature.


Open G Records and Access Contemporary Music present:


Caroline Mallonee‘s  Butterfly Effect, a string quartet
inspired by the idea that a  butterfly flapping its wings in
Australia could cause a tornado in  Texas, Chin Ting
Chan’s gorgeously abrasive Fractals, Lyudmila German’s nod
to organic systems Six Fragments and Four Miniatures, David
Glaser’s  haunting Moonset No. 1 and two world premieres
written for acclaimed  soprano Sharon Harms and clarinetist
Mark Dover of Imani Winds.


Late Night at National Sawdust is a quarterly live taping of
Relevant Tones, a contemporary music podcast hosted by Seth
 Boustead that will also be broadcast in real time on the
nationally  syndicated WFMT Radio Network and on WKCR in New
York. Live radio has  never been so intimate.


The broadcast will be preceded by  the Discovery Series, a
 process-oriented exploration of musical  creativity
led by  composer/pianist Jeremy Gill. The three composers to
 be performed,  chosen from a pool of more than five
hundred, are Henrique
Coe, Adina
Dumitrescu and Ryan Homsey.
