| Electric Masada | Spain | last Saturday I went to the spanish concert, I finally met Zorn for the first time, and was a really unforgettable experience. The show was really intense, combining a high variety of things (the concert started with a chaotic introduction in the style of cobra, and finished with a funky version of a masada piece!!) Baron and Wollessen doing wildest solos continuously, Zorn using his variety of techniques and directing the musicians in a chaotic way,Ribot at the beginning stayed really quite but at half show he begun to play more frenzied(using the tooth playing a la Hendrix and shaking the guitar constantly),Mori creating her usuals electronic ambients with a high coherent sense, Saft was probably the most virtuosistic player of the night, and the rest (Dunn and Baptista)was simply perfect.All great. I really feel that I'm not back to this world yet. (Ricardo Campillo) | |
| 30 Apr 2004 | Electric Masada : | Györ, Hungary | my first time seeing Zorn after years of listening to his music, so it was a very exciting moment. The trip to Hungary was rally worth it. Acoustically, I am afraid the band was too loud for the beautifully decaying synagogue where the concert took place, especially because of the two drummers. For someone with little previous knowledge of the music I suppose the melodies were difficult to decipher. But it was still a very enjoyable performance, enhanced by the location and atmosphere. Joey Baron was my star, as he has been on almost every Masada live recording I've heard. I missed a bit more of interaction between Zorn and the crowd, maybe he was in a bad mood or just tired. Or is he always like that? Before EM went on stage there was a free performance by Misha Mengelberg and Han Bennink. I suppose nothing can go wrong with their experience and sense of humour. People really enjoyed that part of the evening. For the encore they sang a duet which was pretty funny. I had Zorn and Mori sitting next to me during this, and they were really enjoying it. I did not dare to talk to them though. Oh yeah, forgot to mention an anecdotic part of the concert. At one point during the EM set a photographer lady approached the stage to take some pics from close distance. I knew that would piss off Zorn. He began waiving at her, but she didn't react. So he took a bottle of water opened it and first threw the bottle-cap at her. No reaction either. He finally started throwing water at her; that was the end of the puppet show. As usual, Zorn was also asking the crowd how to tell the lady to go in Hungarian... ( Diego Gruber ) |
| 24 Apr 2004 | Electric Masada | Koninklijk Theater, Bruxelles | I saw El.Mas. last night in Brussels. Quite an intense performance, as always. I really liked the double-drummer assault (plus the percussion). Ikue Mori contributed some nice electronics and Ribot didnt play as much as I remember him playing last time I saw them; my impression is that Saft contributed quite a lot this time. Overal, plenty of frantic moments and with some nice jump-cut parts. Compared to their show in Den Haag last year, this show left me less of a "Miles-Davis-70's" impression and a stronger "game-Zorn" feeling. And it is always so nice when they get back to a familiar masada melody after creating havoc! ( Manolis ) The set was pretty chaotic and distorted, more then last year in Ghent. I'd love to see cyro in action! In an encore Zorn did some of his great sax techniques using only the mouthpiece etc. As mentioned in the 'techniques'- thread I've seen Zorn pushing the bell against his leg a lot of times, and he did a lot of 'Prrt Prrt Prrt'! ( chromasoom )

| 17 Jul 05 | Masada | Teatre Grec, Barcelona, Spain | Andreas Dietz : "The band played open air in an amphitheatre built in 1929 for the world exhibition and that was a fantastic environment for the concert. Zorn selected mostly pieces from the new Masada book which I hadn´t heard before. The last track and the first encore were older ones. I had the impression that most of the new pieces are a bit more "reserved".
The gig was attended well and the crowd enjoyed it very much. I hadn´t seen Joey Baron for a while and to watch this guy playing is amazing! The concert was truly a highlight of an inspiring trip to Barcelona. " |
