“Zorn’s compositions for classical soloists with rhythm section are among the most successful and powerful meetings of classical and jazz ever conceived—completely notated virtuosic scores for classical players augmented by improvisers who illuminate the music with surprise, support, and an imaginative unpredictability.
Mining this magical world since 2010, the project reached its apotheosis in the acclaimed 2021 release Heaven and Earth Magick. Here that same quartet divides into different groupings to present a varied and dramatic program of new music at its complex, mischievous best.
Joined by electronic wizard Ikue Mori on one track, Fantasma—Illusions from a Surrealist Mirror is an endlessly imaginative and compelling new project of dynamic cross-genre music from Downtown magus John Zorn.”
