Our Take

John Zorn's latest addition to his Filmworks series, "XIX: Dimitri Geller's The Rain Horse," is a wild and wacky ride through the mind of one of contemporary music's most avant-garde composers. From the moment the first track kicks in, you can tell you're in for a treat - or possibly a mind-bending trip. The album opens with a cacophony of dissonant sounds and jarring rhythms that set the tone for the rest of the journey. Zorn effortlessly blends together elements of jazz, classical, and experimental music to create a sound that is truly unique and captivating. Throughout the album, Zorn takes the listener on a rollercoaster of emotions, from moments of quiet reflection to bursts of frenetic energy that leave you feeling like you've just been thrown into a whirlwind. It's a chaotic and unpredictable experience, but one that is undeniably thrilling. The standout track on the album has to be "The Rain Horse," a sprawling epic that clocks in at over 20 minutes long. It's a masterclass in musical storytelling, with Zorn weaving together intricate melodies and haunting atmospheres to create a truly immersive experience. Overall, "XIX: Dimitri Geller's The Rain Horse" is a triumph for John Zorn and a testament to his status as one of the most innovative composers of our time. It's a challenging listen, to be sure, but one that rewards those willing to take the plunge into Zorn's twisted musical world. Strap in and enjoy the ride!
