This program's music leaps from the off-kilter jazz of Derek Bermel's Three Rivers to the lush ambience of Paola Prestini's Spell. Also thrown into the mix are two pieces featuring saxophone-Edmund Campion's sonic exploration Corail for sax and electronics and Jason Eckhardt's jazz-influenced Tangled Loops for soprano sax and piano. The concert ends with Steven Mackey's challenging Micro-Concerto, a lively tour de force for fiveinstrument ensemble and solo percussionist, who plays everything from vibraphone to kitchen utensils.
