Now in its fourth installment, with a fifth in preparation, John
Zorn's acclaimed "Arcana" series provides insight into the work and
methodologies of some of the most creative musical minds of our
time. Rather than an attempt to distill or define a musician's
work, "Arcana IV" illuminates directly via personal vision and
experience, through the undiluted words and thoughts of the
practitioners themselves, elucidating through manifestos, scores,
interviews, notes and critical papers, composer/performers address
composing, improvising, teaching, living, touring and thinking in
and through music. Essential for composers, musicians, students and
fans alike, this challenging and original series has now become the
major source on new music theory and practice in the twenty-first
century. Among "Arcana IV"'s contributors are the late Derek
Bailey, Nels Cline, Chris Cutler, Paul Dresher, Kenneth Gaburo,
Shelley Hirsch, Wayne Horvitz, Vijay Iyer, Gordon Mumma, Matana
Roberts, Katherine Supove and Carolyn Yarnell.
