New Music Show

Kate Molleson presents more from the Ligeti Quartet's concert with Birmingham ElectroAcoustic Sound Theatre at the University of Birmingham last month, including works by Sara Caneva and BEAST's director, and curator of this concert, Scott Wilson. From a concert given at Glasgow's City Halls in February, Ilan Volkov conducts the BBC Scottish Symphony Orchestra in Oyvind Torvund's The Exotica Album, an affectionate tribute to 1950s pop exoticism. There are also two pieces from a concert of new music in Slovenia for trumpet and electronics, plus the latest releases from 12 Ensemble, Zwerm and a re-issue of Alice Coltrane at Carnegie Hall in 1971.
