ArtistInfo

John Zorn
Aporias (Requia For Piano And Orchestra)

Album US 1998 on Tzadik label
Classical (Contemporary)

Performed in Cologne, Vienna and at Carnegie Hall. Mastered at Foothill Digital, NYC. "An aporia is an impossible passage, and 'Aporias', part piano concerto/part requiem is about those mysterious and spiritual passages separating life from death. The piece is subtitled 'Requia For Piano And Orchestra', but these requia are not for any particular artist or groups of artists: they are dedicated to all artists and to the indomitable spirit of creativity itself -the spark that refuses to die." NYC 1998
