GRIS-GRIS is a virtuosic work for thirteen tuned drums inspired by the music of Korean Shmanism, Hatian Voodoo and a scene from Howard Hawks' classic film TO HAVE OR HAVE NOT. It recieves 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.
