Moving easily between avant-garde electronica and traditional African music, Vienna-born but New York-based composer and percussionist Lukas Ligeti wears many hats nowadays. Find out what makes this unique figure (and son of Gyorgy Ligeti of "2001: A Space Odyssey" fame) tick, as WNYC's exclusive The New Americans Portrait series continues with a broad sampling of his styles, and with his confessions and insights into music-making.

hello, i really appreciate your music. i wish you more inspiration in your work. it is very intersting to listen musician like you.
Hi, love your show for its engaging style and variety of music. One comment though, is there anyway you could more clearly distinguish when you are playing a different piece? Because the music is often so innovative, it's hard to tell if the traditional African music is maybe part of some unique composition that includes a contemporary-sounding string section.
