Although he's spent most of his career focusing on interpreting the music of others, pianist Steve Kuhn's albums for the ECM label have largely been about his small but significant repertoire of original music.

Partisans: By Proxy
by Chris May

Masada Quintet Featuring Joe Lovano: Stolas: Book of Angels, Volume 12
by Troy Collins
John Zorn's Masada project has blossomed over the past decade and a half, demonstrating durability in the face of multiple interpretations.

Mark Feldman / Uri Caine / Greg Cohen / Joey Baron: Secrets
by Warren Allen
Mark Feldman, Uri Caine, Greg Cohen and Joey Baron have all played integral parts in John Zorn's many explorations of Jewish improvised music.
