Description

John Zorn refuses to be pigeonholed – his music moves freely between jazz, noise and classical, and between composition and improvisation. The incorrigible New York composer also dislikes talking about his work, and does so very rarely. But he has been persuaded to do so on the occasion of his Reflektor Festival in the Elbphilharmonie. At the start of the four-day concert marathon, he will be talking with the Elbphilharmonie’s director Christoph Lieben-Seutter in the Kaistudio. A discussion for current and prospective Zorn disciples.
