Tirzah Quartet, earlier this year one of the highlights at the 'John Zorn 60' night at Gent Jazz, will present exclusively for Icarus some brand new work!
Tirzah-Quartet is a new dynamic ensemble from Belgium that celebrates John Zorn's beautiful soundtrack-music, arranged for a chamber ensemble of Violin, Harp, Cello and Guitar/Bass and played by classicaly-trained musicians : Eva, Herlinde, Karen and Jan.
Encouraged by the composer, Tirzah developed a heart-warming concert-program that combines Zorn's music with narration and the screening of a short animation-movie. This makes our concerts a memorable experience !
When Zorn received the 'Magister' title of Ghent University in 2011, Tirzah was invited to play at the Ceremony.
Tirzah played to great acclaim at Gent-Jazz : Zorn at 60 !
Recently, the group has been working on some brand-new original compositions to be premiered in 2014.
