Sam Eastmond
The Bagatelles Vol 16
(Tzadik Records)
★★★★★

NEW YORKER John Zorn is an avant-garde musician singularly unconcerned by and working outside the “mainstream,” and yet simultaneously having a profound influence on it.

His Book of (300) Bagatelles (a term used since 1827 for pieces of light music) comprises three-minute-burst micro-collages that are as unexpected as they are fascinating.

Sam Eastmond, a London-based Jewish musical polymath, brings an innate feel for and astonishing invention to his interpretation of Zorn’s soundscapes.

Angharad Jenkins and Patrick Rimes
Amrwd/Raw
(Ty Cerdd Records)
★★★★★

Gabriel Moreno
