A nice program by Brooklyn's favorite chamber orchestra.  You get a new piece by the excellent Irish Post-Minimalist Donnacha Dennehy.  You get a fairly frequently played (and it's a good thing!) short piece by the wonderfulCaroline Shaw.  You get some pieces by the Syrian-American clarinetist Kinan Azmeh.  You get some Adès.  You get some Vivaldi.  You get an arrangement of my personal favorite Ligeti piece by a member of the band.  And, you get "Big Noise from Winnetka".

MAKE A NIGHT OF IT:  After "Big Noise from Winnetka", I couldn't send you to anyplace less festive than Cuban fun factory Guantanamera.  If you're lucky, there'll be some live music on when you get there.
