1999 studio album by John Zorn
The String Quartets is an album of contemporary classical music by American composer and saxophonist/multi-instrumentalist John Zorn performed by Mark Feldman, Erik Friedlander, Joyce Hammann and Lois Martin.[1] The piece Kol Nidre is a tune from Zorn's Masada songbook.[2][3]
The Allmusic review by Joslyn Layne awarded the album 4 stars stating "Maybe Zorn's genius isn't that he creates entirely unique music, but he certainly has an ear for great musical ideas, gleaned from his years of deep listening. And so, while these compositions may not be landmarks among string quartet works, they are exceedingly well done".[4]
