The program includes Kyle Gann’s ultra-intricate Chicago Spiral (a nine-part triple canon!), three haunting pieces from David Lang’s Child, and William Duckworth’s Mysterious Numbers. W...ayne Siegel’s remarkable Jackdaw (for bass clarinet and electronic sounds) and Scott Unrein’s exceedingly beautiful Imanaka are also heard.
