Julian Lage and Gyan Riley are two of new music's most accomplished guitar virtuosos and their duo performances are transcendent experiences filled with meticulous detail and telepathic interplay. Here they perform a dramatic book of music inspired by the haunting and enigmatic novel A High Wind in Jamaica-the story of a group of children that gets mixed up with pirates-the twist being the children turn out to be even more dangerous than the pirates. A precursor to The Lord of the Flies, it is considered one of the best English novels ever written. Filled with ominous mystery and a dangerous innocence, Quatrain is another beautiful project from the pen of alchemist John Zorn.1. The Innocent Voyage2. Restless Melancholy3. Hallucinations4.

The long awaited first recording by John Zorn's newest and most exciting ensemble, the New Masada Quartet. Performing eight classic compositions from the Masada songbooks, NMQ is a tight unit of like-minded virtuosi and one of the best groups Zorn has ever had. Bristling hot guitar master Julian Lage, bass wizard Jorge Roeder and 30-year Zorn veteran Kenny Wollesen perform with a crackling live energy that brings the Masada music to life like never before! Led by Zorn's versatile sax and stop and start conducting, the music is filled with burning solos, telepathic group interaction, heartfelt lyricism and hypnotic grooves. Beautifully recorded at Bill Laswell's studio in New Jersey this is an absolute masterpiece. Essential! Album Tracks 1. Tharsis 2. Rigal 3. Hath Arob 4. Sansanah 5. Mibi 6. Kedushah 7. Tagriel 8.
