The New Masada Quartet—saxophone legend John Zorn’s beloved ensemble featuring guitar master Julian Lage, bass wizard Jorge Roeder and 30-year Zorn veteran Kenny Wollesen—returns to Roulette for the fourth consecutive year for one tight and telepathic set.
Performing classic compositions from the Masada songbooks, NMQ is a unit of like-minded virtuosi and one of the best groups Zorn has ever had. Led by Zorn’s versatile sax and stop and start conducting, the music is filled with burning solos, harmonious group interaction, heartfelt lyricism, and hypnotic grooves.
