THIS WEEK ON WXYC

Micropolyphony is a compositional technique involving the use of sustained dissonant chords which shift slowly over time, first introduced in 1961 by Gyorgy Ligeti. He composed music that happens whenever the monolith shows up in Space Odyssey. To hear/learn more, tune in to this week's Thursday Night Feature, hosted by Jon P. 9pm.

Be sure to check out Friday's Inside Track, where new albums get played in their entirety, to hear experimental banjo performer Uncle Woody Sullender's latest, Live at Barkenhoff. 9pm.
