Now in its 13th year, San Francisco's Other Minds New Music Festival can't be called under the radar anymore, even if the music it spotlights is still far from mainstream. This year's concerts feature the American premiere of a composition by the late John Cage, freshly commissioned pieces by free-jazz pioneer Ishmael Wadada Leo Smith, and a performance by Bay Area electronic-music innovator Morton Subotnick. It's an ambitious lineup, eager to challenge traditional boundaries by, as the New Yorker's Alex Ross says, "cultivating all the music that would otherwise drop between the cracks."
