Name a better currently active American composer than Joan Tower.  You can't -- but if you tried, candidates would include Julia Wolfe, Jennifer Higdon, and Tania Leon.  And they're all represented on this program celebrating Tower's 80th birthday -- played by a stunning array of New Music specialists.

MAKE A NIGHT OF IT:  If it's Sunday, I must be sending you to the Mid-Atlantic charmer Delaware and Hudson.  I'll take the Tavern Room for the best bar snacks you've ever had and à la carte items from the dining room prix fixemenu; you might prefer the dining room for the prix fixe itself:  a tremendous value.
