     Three distinctive instrumental works touching upon themes of
     magic and mysticism. Goetia are spells and incantations for
     summoning demonic spirits and this colorful set of variations
     for solo violin draws upon the ancient alliance between the
     violin and the devil. Gris-Gris is a virtuosic work for
     thirteen tuned drums inspired by the music of Korean
     Shamanism, Haitian Voodoo and a scene from Howard Hawks'
     classic film To Have and Have Not. It receives a spectacular
     performance by one of the world's leading avant-garde
     percussionists William Winant. Completing the program is one
     of Zorn's most personal and elusive ensemble pieces. Scored
     for clavichord, three muted strings and percussion, Shibboleth
     is a stunning tribute to the enigmatic Jewish poet Paul Celan.
