An evening of trios for clarinet, violin, and cello by members of yet another excellent New Music ensemble. The Old Modern side is upheld by really terrific pieces by Elliot Carter and Ursula Mamlok (pay attention to Mamlok: she's the best High Modern composer you've never heard of). The new side is led by Du Yun, surely one of the very best exponents of The Current Tendency Of Contemporary Classical Music (dealing with everyday concerns, taking textures from pop blahblahblah).

MAKE A NIGHT OF IT: Zhen Wei Fang's hot pots are slightly tarted up — but don't worry too much when they start calling them "fusion"; they're quite good anyway.
