Since its inception in 1987, the Bang on a Can festival has been discovering and presenting the most exciting performers who have committed their lives to the music of our time. Over ten years, Bang on a Can has found a number of these musicians -- performers who are adventurous, virtuosic, dynamic and intense, who are equally at home with the diverse styles that exist within music today. Six players in particular kept coming back. They were among the festival's finest artists -- six of the most accomplished performers of new music in the world. With these six players the festival created the Bang on a Can All-Stars. Their instrumentation is unique -- clarinets and saxophones, electric guitar, cello, bass, keyboards, percussion -- and doesn't seem to fit in any recognizable category...part classical ensemble, part rock band, part jazz band.
