Kate Molleson presents live from this year's Huddersfield Contemporary Music Festival, the first of four programmes from this long-running key event in the new music world. Tonight we hear a live performance of Anthony Braxton's Composition 284 - part of the composer's Ghost Trance Music system - by guitarist Kobe Van Cauwenberghe and turntablist Mariam Rezai. Also tonight, the eight trumpets of the Monochrome Project perform a new work by one of this year's featured composers, Wadada Leo Smith, keyboardist Zubin Kanga plays the dazzling music of Alex Paxton, and Tom Service explores Yrttitarha, one of the multimedia installations at the festival, an interactive herb garden from Finnish artist Tytti Arola.
