Iza, I'm currently working on one (a book) about Zorn. But, of course, if he doesn't approve my "prototype" (if you will), then I probably won't release it. I have a good number of transcriptions (that I worked on by myself), and am trying to use certain passages of these to explain his "blocks of sound," etc. and his nod to Stallings, Ives, Herrmann, Morricone, etc. Zorn means so much to me, that I think more people need to find out about him. But on the other hand, the searching and finding out yourself is part of the adventure. So my book doesn't give it all away, it still leaves plenty of mystery. Besides...Zorn is ever-changing anyway. So, within a month, it would be ancient history to what his current ideas are presently. (If by any chance you read this post...thanks SO much for introducing me to Zorn's music Rob...for that, I am ALWAYS in debt to you.) Listen and don't look, ---Nathan p.s. "Arcana" is a good book but I figured that you already knew about that one, and besides it's not just about Zorn.

I was wondering if there is any book about Zorn (biography, discography..) ? Which would you reccomend?
