Random Access Music and Tokyo to New York bring innovation, movement, and
sound together in RAM Dances, a two-night event at the Martha Graham Studio
Theater on November 14 and 15, 2025.
This program celebrates the exchange between music and dance, featuring
acclaimed dancer and choreographer Henning Rübsam in dynamic new
collaborations with the composers and performers of RAM.
Rübsam and composer Beata Moon, who have collaborated since 1992, present
the world premiere of “ASSEMBLY,” in which Rübsam will be joined onstage by
longtime dance partner Violetta Klimczewska. Hélène Taddei Lawson and
Rübsam choreograph and dance the world premiere of “STARDUST” to music by
Masatora Goya.
The evening brings together a critically acclaimed lineup of musicians:
Lish Lindsey (flutes), Thomas Piercy (clarinet and hichiriki), Sabina
Torosjan (violin), Molly Aronson (cello), and Marina Iwao (piano).
The concert presents three world premieres commissioned by Random Access
Music and Thomas Piercy—new works by Beata Moon, Frances White, and Andrea
Casarrubios—together with recent compositions by Masatora Goya and Roger
Stubblefield.
As part of the “Fifteen Minutes of Fame” project, audiences will also hear
the premieres of 15 one-minute duos for hichiriki and low flutes.
Compposers included in this set of 15 are: Nantenaina Andriamorasata, Vahan
Luder Artinian, David Bohn, Ross James Carey, Monica Chew, Philip
Czapłowski, Douglas DaSilva, Paolo Geminiani, Simon Hutchinson, Sakiko
Kosaka, Matt A. Mason, Gene Pritsker, Allen Schulz, Jane Wang, and Dalen
Wuest.
These miniature works, performed by Thomas Piercy (hichiriki) and Lish
Lindsey (flutes), explore the delicate interplay between East and
West—melding the sounds of the ancient Japanese instrument with the sound
of the modern Western instrument.

Novus is please to announce
composers selected for
FIFTEEN MINUTES OF FAME
Featuring Dániel Váczi and the Glissotar
Vox Novus is thrilled to announce the selected composers for Fifteen
Minutes of Fame featuring Dániel Váczi and his remarkable invention, the
Glissotar—a member of the revolutionary Glissonic family of instruments.
Dániel Váczi is one of Hungary’s most exciting and versatile musical
innovators: a composer, saxophonist, multi-instrumentalist, theorist, and
inventor. As creator of both new musical systems and instrument designs,
Váczi explores the intersection of science, sound, and philosophy. His
“reticular” system connects pitch with temporal position—a musical
spacetime—while his Glissonic instruments replace traditional tone holes
with a magnetic ribbon that allows for continuous glissando and microtonal
precision across a full pitch continuum.
This Fifteen Minutes of Fame collection invites fifteen composers from
around the world to respond to the expressive potential of the Glissotar, a
glissonic tárogató (a Hungarian single-reed instrument akin to a wooden
soprano saxophone). Each one-minute piece showcases the instrument’s fluid
pitch motion, extended techniques, and unique timbral world—pushing the
limits of wind performance and composition alike.
Selected ComposersAarohan Jai Anand · Bracha Bdil · David Bohn · Erik
Branch · Michael Coleman · Douglas DaSilva · Petri Kuljuntausta · Erick
Odiweric · Étienne Rolin · Juan María Solare · Jason A. Taurins · Alex
Temple · Jean-Pierre Vial · Anna Vriend · Mark Zaki

>From jazz-inflected etudes and nature-inspired studies to microtonal
textures and playful experiments in sound, these fifteen new works
celebrate the spirit of invention embodied by Dániel Váczi and the
Glissotar.
