John Zorn: Bagatelles Part 3
Brian Marsella Trio & John Medeski Trio
Between March-May of 2015 John Zorn set about writing a new book of compositions. He ended up writing 300 pieces and called the book The Bagatelles, embracing a more atonal approach to inspire greater improvisational possibilities. In the years since, a variety of ensembles have forged close connections to these pieces and the six groups Zorn has chosen to perform during Big Ears are at the very top of their form.
