| LISTINGS | t Music WEDNESDAY, A UG. 15 John Abercrombie: There’s a lilt to the lyrical fare on the new Within a Song , and it’s born of the guitarist’s stylistic bent as well as the classic melodies he chooses to essay. From Ornette to Rollins, the program glances back to the ‘60s and pieces that initially impressed the young Abercrombie. Sharing the front line with saxophonist Joe Lovano, he guides a blend of dewy string tones and genteel horn bluster towards dulcet radiance. MACNIE 8:30 p.m. and 11 p.m., $30.

Enfants Terribles: Reconstruction is paramount for this inter-generational quartet comprised of saxophonist Lee Konitz, guitarist Bill Frisell, bassist Gary Peacock, and drummer Joey Baron: They’ll grab a standard’s thematic DNA and twist it silly. The result is a concoction which often has zilch to do with predictable expectations. Meanwhile, the 84-year-old Konitz is particularly mercurial, aligning impulses into a cagey schema.
