John Zorn live at U of C

Avant-garde composer and saxophonist John Zorn will be on the campus of the University of Chicago tomorrow for a night of music discussion and live experimental jazz. Zorn will be performing with his Acoustic Masada quartet, which the New Yorker describes as a "mix of straight-ahead jazz, film-noir melodrama, free improvisation, twisted blues and bittersweet balladry." If you've been in a musical rut lately and feel like everything sounds the same anymore, this show may just be the remedy you're looking for. The show starts at 7pm and will be held at U of C's Mandel Hall, 1131 E. 57th Street. General admission is $15, students get in for a cool five bucks.
