  • As part of Sessions, a spin-off of Gagosian Premieres, composer and saxophonist John Zorn and bass guitarist and producer Bill Laswell perform an improvised work in Sterling Ruby’s exhibition “TURBINES,” at Gagosian, 522 West 21st Street, New York. Zorn is celebrated for his experimental approaches to composition and improvisation in forms ranging from classical, jazz, and ambient music to rock, metal, and hardcore. Here he plays saxophone while Laswell, a prolific and diverse musical collaborator known for his involvement with the band Material among many other projects, plays electric bass. The duo responds to Ruby’s new abstract paintings, which create a sense of flurried motion through the energetic convergence of materials.

    For those that might be interested, Laswell also did a terrific duo album way back in '87 with another sax great, the German Peter Brötzmann. It's called "Low Life."

      Laswell and Brötzmann had a band together, called Last Exit, with Sonny Sharrock and Ronald Shannon Jackson. Their music was pretty wild.

    Tried this at an art league tour for VIPs in Charlotte recently. Room cleared real quick. It plays at Gagosian. Would love to have Perry Farrell, John Frusciante and Nigel Godrich at my Gagosian opening. Get that wallet ready Larry! 🔥 I enjoyed Bill Laswell's work during his Tabla Beat science days.

  • @honeymoonisover
    @honeymoonisover Před 5 měsíci

    i really liked how this session started. id love for mr zorn to record/compose something on that much more heartfelt and melodic direction, i can tell hes getting much more mature with his own sounds in recent works. it is really sensitive also seeing that hes at probably the latest stage of his career. such an unhinged genius, never stop questioning!

    • @strictlydubwise
      @strictlydubwise Před rokem

      He's been struggling with mobility issues in his hands/arms, so he's started playing an 8-string with a pick, taking a more ambient and less percussive approach to the bass.
