Description
Zorn's Masada music has never sounded as beautiful or as evocative as in this recording originally created for 'Port Of Last Resort' - a film documentary about the Jewish refugees who escaped Germany by resettling to Shanghai. Augmenting the exciting Masada String Trio with the sensual pipa of Min Xiao-Fen, the versatile guitar of Marc Ribot and the ivory touch of Anthony Coleman's piano stylings, this music blends Jewish and Chinese themes in a way both touching and fresh. Also included is an exotic all-percussion score for Ela Troyano's quirky gay film 'Latin Boys Go To Hell,' featuring the bizarre sonorities and driving rhythms of Cyro Baptista and Kenny Wollesen.
