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.
