From the late 1960s onwards, CS&N (without the Y, aka Neil Young, this time around) have shared common, often intricate history as well as once being viewed as US counter-cultural figureheads. That CS&N haven't released an album since 1994 (After the Storm) is moot – avid fans will be happy indeed just to hear classic closely harmonised singer-songwriter tracks from 1969's self-titled debut, and 1970's CSN&Y album, Déjà Vu.

The National's Bryce Dessner launches Marcel Dzama's show centred on his film Une Danse des Bouffons, a fictionalised account of the ill-fated, romantic affair between artist Marcel Duchamp and Brazilian sculptor Maria Martins. Works on paper are also included, as is a new collaborative film by Dessner and Dzama. For emerging talent, look to Origins at St Carthage Hall in the town.

You may watch Kim Noble's unflinching depiction of big-city loneliness, madly inspired encounters, outrageous intrusions and more sincere search for human connection with a scandalised amusement, profound ethical worries or through splayed fingers. But it's a show you pretty much have to see.
