By Jim Sector - Posted Oct 19th 2010 at 10:31 AM

Albany Symphony 'New Music Advisor' and Music Alive Composer-in-Residence George Tsontakis joined us to talk about the upcoming Oct 21 & 22 performances and the three student-composers from Bard College that are featured -- who study under composer Joan Tower as well as George. Their names? Shen Yiwen, Lukas Olejnik (who, if you google, is not the Mixed Martial Arts fighter), and Benjamin Pesetsky.

Take a look! And don't forget to get your tickets now for the performances.

Afterward, take a listen to the Intermezzo to help prepare yourself for this Thursday/Friday!
