Red Note’s celebration of contemporary composition. Listen to some cutting-edge new music in the relaxed atmosphere of the Traverse Theatre bar, and take part (if you dare) in the 10-Minute Composing Challenge: write a piece down on the free music paper provided and the best audience composition will be performed at the end of the night. The stipulations for commissions this time round are that the music has to be in 4/4, should ideally be played to a backing track, and has to be for violin, cello and accordion. (The challenge, then, is to stop it from sounding like Serbian turbo-folk…)
