Some of the most rigorous abstract music Zorn has yet created, the 'Enigmata' are just that: mysterious puzzles that will confound even Zorn’s most hardcore fans. Twelve bizarre compositional miniatures for the blazing duo of Marc Ribot and Trevor Dunn combining classical 12-tone lyricism with rock intensity and improvisational madness. Jumping from composition to improvisation so seamlessly that it is often impossible to tell what is what, this is some of the craziest music he has ever created. An amazing CD of instrumental madness: Captain Beefheart’s Magic Band meets Arnold Schoenberg!
