TICKETS + INFORMATION / LIVE STREAM

This show features world premieres by (among others) Tomeka Reid and Fred Frith(!). But the fun of Bang on a Can’s People’s Commissioning Fund concerts is always the stuff by people you haven’t heard of (yet).

MAKE A NIGHT OF IT: If it’s Merkin Hall, it’s gotta be Old John’s Diner. If streaming at home, have a Bronx: pour 1-1/2 oz. Gin, 3/4 oz each. of sweet and dry Vermouth, and 1 oz. orange juice, with 1 dash of orange bitters, into an ice-filled cocktail shaker. Strain into a chilled Martini glass or coupe. Garnish with an orange twist.
