My piece is titled 'Zany, Cute, Interesting.' It's inspired by the literary theorist Sianne Ngai, whose book Our Aesthetic Categories explores what she calls 'weak aesthetics' - our ambivalent or antithetical responses to contemporary culture and commodities: playfulness and desperation, tenderness and aggression, stimulation and boredom. This composition stages a violin performance that might support a similar range of reactions, offering an ambivalence around the notion of virtuosity.- Vijay Iyer.

Reise brings his signature rhythmic impulses to his 2004 quartet, the intricate Across the Horizons. Although many point to the instrumentation as a Messiaen quartet (Quatuor pour le fin du temps), let there be no further comparison. Reise, who was earlier introduced to Carnatic rhythms of South India music and who finds ways of incorporating them into his own, has taken us on a significant journey in three movements. As always, Reise's music attracts the finest performers - Across the Horizons has been recorded by Charles Abramovic (piano), Allison Herz (clarinet), Karen Bentley Pollick (violin), and Michal Schmidt (cello). For advanced performers.
