“You could make a good case for calling Alarm Will Sound the coolest ensemble performing today. The 20-member band's repertoire leans toward the experimental, including compositions by modern composers like Steve Reich, Philip Glass, and John Adams. But although their work relies heavily on proprietary arrangements of avant-garde pieces, Alarm Will Sound still maintain a penchant for performing works from outsider musicians like the Shaggs or out-there pop-satirists like Frank Zappa. Highlights from tonight's program include Autechre ("Cfern 6"), Mochipet ("Dessert Search for Techno Baklava"), the Beatles ("Revolution 9"), and several selections from Aphex Twin.”
Wolcott Katzenbach, Flavorpill
