You guys! One of Magnus Lindberg's early works (that would be: Kraft) requires the percussionists to pick out materials for the performance from a local junkyard. (That way every performance is unique and locally-based, see.) So here it is - percussionists of the NYPO finding their instruments:
I wish this was an everyday occurrence. Although maybe with an expanded hunting-ground; I don't spend much time hanging out in junkyards.

("Kraft" would be such a great piece to hear live...in the meantime, there's always NAXOS.)

I love Magnus Lindberg!!! Alex Freeman introduced me to his music back then. His stuffs are wonderful!!
