THE FINAL VOLUME OF JOHN ZORN’S ARCANA—MUSICIANS ON MUSIC
Initiated in 1997 and now in its tenth and FINAL installment, John Zorn's acclaimed ARCANA series is a major source of new music theory and practice in the 21st-century. Illuminating directly via the personal vision and experience of the practitioners themselves, who experience music not from a cool, safe distance, but from the white-hot center of the creative crucible itself, ARCANA elucidates through essays, manifestos, scores, interviews, notebooks, and critical papers. Over twenty-five years the ten volumes of ARCANA have presented the writings of over 300 of the most extraordinary musical thinkers of our time, who address composing, performing, improvising, touring, collaborating, living and thinking about music from diverse, refreshing and often surprising perspectives. Technical, philosophical, political, artistic, and mystical in nature, these writings provide direct connections to the creative processes and hidden stratagem of musicians from the worlds of classical, rock, jazz, film soundtrack, improvised music and more. Essential for composers, musicians, students and fans alike, these challenging and passionate essays provide a unique view into the musician’s inner sanctum, leading the creative mind towards an exciting new world of untapped possibilities for artists, writers, musical theorists, musicians and curious listeners alike. ** Heavy item that requires additional shipping charges for non-U.S. destinations |
