John Zorn 60th Birthday
Jez Nelson marks the 60th birthday of composer and multi-instrumentalist John Zorn, with live recordings from the archives.
How many musicians' careers can be said to have spanned cartoon music, klezmer and extreme metal? None as important as composer and multi-instrumentalist John Zorn, whose 60th birthday is marked in this programme. Improvised music has been a major part of Zorn's musical life, absorbing these sounds and more in long-running groups such as Masada, who feature as part of this celebration with a performance from the Jazz on 3 vaults.
Presenter: Jez Nelson
Producers: Peggy Sutton & Chris Elcombe.
