A menagerie of alien-looking instruments will fill the stage when Ensemble Musikfabrik and the director Heiner Goebbels bring to life this work by the West Coast maverick composer Harry Partch. Presented by Lincoln Center Festival, it blends elements of Japanese and Ethiopian folklore and theater with Partch's unorthodox tuning systems and intricate rhythms. Earlier in the evening the percussionist and vocalist David Moss opens a window into Partch's idiosyncratic art in "Bitter Music," a lecture-performance of music written during his itinerant years in the mid-1930s, which reflects the fragmentation and uprooting of traditions of the Great Depression.
