Airs Monday, May 28 at 7PM on 93.9 FM
A founding member of the Bang on a Can All-Stars, Mark Stewart not only uses traditional instruments in new ways, but he also creates his own. Stewart sits down with WNYC's John Schaefer to explore the concert music of composers Glenn Branca, Nick Ditkowsky, Steve Mackey, and Scott Johnson—side by side with the guitar gods and source material that inspired them, from Hendrix to Zappa.
