GOETIA are spells and incantations for summoning demonic spirits and this colorful set of variations for solo violin draws upon the ancient alliance between the violin and the devil. GRIS-GRIS is a virtuosic work for thirteen tuned drums inspired by the music of Korean Shmanism, Hatian Voodoo and a scene from Howard Hawks' classic film TO HAVE OR HAVE NOT. It recieves a spectacular performance by one of the world's leading avant-garde percussionists - William Winant. Completing the program is one of Zorn's most personal and elusive ensemble pieces.

Towering figures of New York's Downtown scene, Zorn and Laswell have been working together since the late 1970s. Following up on their acclaimed 2022 duo project The Cleansing, this new volume presents musical memorials to three artistic visionaries whose powerful legacies remain touchstones of creativity and artistic integrity. Here the music takes on more of an ambient edge, and is distinguished by telepathic improvisational interplay and a unique virtuosity. Three heartfelt tributes from one generation of mavericks to another, Memoria is a beautiful collection of modern improvisation at it's best.1. Pharoah Sanders2. Milford Graves3. Wayne Shorter
