Jóhann Jóhannsson, a popular constituent of Iceland's abundant New Music scene,* died unexpectedly earlier this year.  Like everyone on that scene, Jóhannsson failed to recognize any strict boundaries between classical music and various forms of pop; his work was a fluent blend of orchestral/chamber writing with electronica (maybe too fluent:  some of his music tended to perhaps be overly easy on the ears).  There could not be more eloquent advocates of his work than ACME.  

MAKE A NIGHT OF IT:  Need another late-night spot if you want anything after this show:  4 Charles Prime Rib.
