It's not on any of these video's but on the audio only version of this performance before John Zorn starts introducing the band he's bitching at the photographers.
"We are not going to play one note of music until everyone of these photographic leaches get the fuck away from the stage! Goodbye. Everyone of you. Goodbye. Get the fuck out of here, not one fucking note. Go. I don't care who the fuck you are or what color your hair is dyed. Good bye."
It's great.
The Masada String Trio performs selections from the Masada songbook in a classical-cum-chamber jazz form. Personnel include Mark Feldman (violin), Erik Friedlander (cello), and Greg Cohen (bass).
The performing style is characterized by the use of improvisation (sometimes conducted by Zorn himself) and its use of the inflections of Jewish music that are part of the compositional language of Zorn's "Masada" themes.
