"Symphony No. 15 Running Through the World Like an Open Razor (Music for Strange Orchestra)" may be Glenn Branca's most entertaining. From softly undulating washes of sound to rich changing neo-harmony to resonant fields of acoustic phenomena to roaring musical brutalism and even to parody, this symphony is a tour de force on the razor's edge of 21st century new music. In this performance Branca will be conducting an ensemble of 12 musicians playing more than 100 varying instruments, both acoustic and electric, many built, altered or prepared specifically for this production. Other Music is giving away two pairs of tickets to the premiere performance, which takes place this Sunday at (Le) Poisson Rouge. To enter, email tickets@othermusic.com, and they'll notify the two winners on Friday.
