Zorn@60
John Zorn + Ryuichi Sakamoto

Incomparable musical maverick John Zorn returns to Japan Society for a concert birthday bash held as part of the international series of musical happenings honoring his turning 60. Composer, arranger, saxophonist and Japan aficionado, Zorn, whose music ranges from classical to contemporary and rock to klezmer, curated Japan Society’s Tzadik Label Music Series and was a leading force behind the 3/11 charity Concert for Japan. For this celebratory concert Zorn is joined on stage by musical pioneer composer, pianist and Academy Award-winner Ryuichi Sakamoto. Together, these two visionary artists offer an entirely improvised evening of music.
