Thieves Quartet?
david
I saw the Thieves quartet in 1993 during the month long Zorn retrospective at
KF. They were pretty good, Zorn played piano, sounding rather like a
non-virtuostic Bill Evans (of all things). After playing the suite from
Thieves, they played some of the Masada material. The line-up was Dave
Douglass- tpt, Greg Cohen -bs, Joey Baron- dm, Zorn- as, pno. This is the
same as one of the Masada groups, no? (The Masada material sounded much
better on the west coast, however, with Ben Goldberg, Trevor Dunn & Kenny
Wolleson.) David says he has a recording of Thieves quartet, is this a
bootleg, or a tape from an actual release. If it's a real thing I am sure
Patrice Roussel (proussel@ichips.intel.com) will want to hear about it for
his discography.

The tape I have is a copy of one sent to the radio station here. I don't
know any more about it at this point.

After the I joined this list, I added a page,
http://www.nwu.edu/jazz/artists/zorn.john.html -- features pointers to
Patrice's Zorn Discography, Ed's Zornfest collection, and the subscription
address for this list. If anyone has either information to add, or an

me.

Definitely! ELEGY and KRISTALLNACHT are two singularities in Zorn's recent
production. They represent his more "contemporary" side. ELEGY is definitely
inspired by LE MARTEAU SANS MAITRE, by French composer Pierre Boulez -- one
of the masterpieces of serial music (from 1953). ELEGY is also an hommage to
Jean Genet's universe. The music is dark, subtle and very complex and is an
amazing vehicle in conveying Genet's litterary 's atmosphere. I am very
reluctant to music which tries to establish a bridge with other form of
artistic expression, not that I deny some successful realizations, but ...
music is music, literature is literature, etc :-). ELEGY is not an
illustration of Genet's novels/plays, it is more like the musical equivalent
of what Genet wrote. At least it the way I feel when listening at it.
One of his most intriguing piece.
If you are more on the Naked City/Pain Killer side, you might be desappointed,
but if you are a true Zorn fanatic, and somebody who likes to keep his ears
open to any inovative music, this is a must.
Tzadik has the project of reissuing ELEGY next year. They are still some
record stores which carry some copies of the Eva pressing (I know at least
one :-).
> P.S. If you have a catalog number, that would help too.
No problem:
ELEGY: John Zorn ( 1992 - Eva Records, WWCX 2040 (CD))

Subject: A breakdown of the various Zorn projects...?
Hi all,
I'm sort of new to Zorn, and tend to get confused by the different
projects, and indeed find it hard to identify a given CD (unless it's
clearly Naked City, for example).
Perhaps someone could outline the different projects, or give a
pointer to where this information can be found?
Thanks man.
Leon.

What's different about the ltd. edition? Is the track listing
on both versions the same, and more to the point from my perspective,
does the Earache (assuming of course that it's being released by them
too) version have the second ambient CD.
Regards,
John
