During a show that marries the classical and contemporary, three electronic-music masters share Poisson Rouge's stage with pianist Gilles Vonsattel. The Swiss-born prodigy has won many music awards and plays regularly at Lincoln Center, but he does smaller shows like this one in order to explode the notion of what's involved in the classical-concert experience. Tonight, he performs with Klimek, whose music drifts about in an atmospheric haze; Ezekiel Honig, whose dreamy electro narratives are minimal yet warm; and Simon Boyar, whose intensely rhythmic pieces exist at the crossroads of birdsong and tribal chanting — the perfect soundtrack for the urban jungle.
