John Zorn received on of the inaugural AMC Trailblazer Awards

John Zorn is a person who is a visionary in many, many ways. He always really understands that music-making comes primarily from people; that that’s really what it’s about and he’s done this process and worked with this process over the years in so many different ways and has been incredibly generous to other composers by forming a label, Tzadik Records, and has produced other people’s music. He formed a club called Tonic where people can perform their music and has also contributed wonderful idiosyncratic, unique compositions of his own. He’s really a force of nature!
