0 upcoming performances in New York

Lukas Ligeti’s *Notebook* is a New York–based ensemble project that treats composition like a working journal, where ideas are tested in public and revised over time. At Roulette, the group marks a CD release with new pieces that trace Ligeti’s lines between contemporary classical practice, jazz vocabulary, and long study of African traditional and pop forms. It sits within the city’s ongoing history of composer-led music made outside institutions. The music’s significance is in its method: cross-cultural influence handled as craft, not décor.
