New Music. New Jazz. Curated by John Zorn.

The John Zorn Commissioning Series celebrates The Stone, Zorn’s revolutionary venue “dedicated to the experimental and avant-garde”, which served as a vital spot for new music in the East Village for over a decade. Held on the last Wednesday of every month, National Sawdust honors the spirit of The Stone, hosting artists selected by John Zorn presenting world premieres of new works.

This month’s concert features ACC alumna and groundbreaking composer, multi-instrumentalist, dancer, and vocalist Jen Shyu and her new solo multilingual, multimedia drama, ZERO GRASSES, directed by Alexandru Mihail with set and props design by Kristen Robinson and lighting design by Solomon Weisbard.
