Today’s Music by Today’s Composers.
Bang on a Can All-Stars.
The Bang on a Can All-Stars were founded in 1992, which by and large fall between a chamber music ensemble and a rock band. They have executed diverse works by contemporary composers that are all pushing out the boundaries between classical music and rock and pop music.
