The International Society for  Contemporary Music (ISCM) holds  arguably the world’s most important  contemporary music festival in a  different city each year.
Much like the Olympics, cities bid to be the host and this year it’s  in  Vancouver.  In this first program of two, we hear from Jordan  Nobles,  Charlotte Bray, Jocelyn Morlock, and Stefan Prins.
