Album Notes & Community Reviews

Drawing conceptual inspiration from the esoteric writings of P.D. Ouspensky and G.I. Gurdjieff, John Zorn leads a trio comprising Shanir Ezra Blumenkranz, Kenny Wollesen, and Rob Burger. The acoustic compositions blend complex chamber jazz with deep, spiritual world-music sensibilities.
