Technically, the name Bang on a Can refers not to a specific set of musicians but to yearly festivals of new music curated by avant-garde composer/performers Julia Wolfe, David Lang, and Michael Gordon. Albums by the group are most often credited to the Bang on a Can All-Stars, a relatively stable group of six to eight performers and arrangers who comprise the core of the creative group. Under both names, as a whole, they have released a few dozen recordings featuring music of the original three founders, frequent collaborator Terry Riley, and other composers. In 2022, Bang on a Can's label, Cantaloupe, released a fresh recording of Riley's Autodreamographical Tales.
