Tzadik is a US record label based in New York City, specializing in avant-garde and experimental music. Established in 1995 by composer and saxophonist John Zorn, Tzadik has become a prominent name in the industry. With Zorn as the executive producer of all Tzadik releases, the label operates as a not-for-profit cooperative.

With an extensive catalog numbering scheme, Tzadik offers a diverse range of musical experiences. From special editions to limited edition vinyls, their releases cater to various preferences. They also have dedicated series such as John Zorn's 50th Birthday Celebration Series and Radical Jewish Culture Series.

While CDs were initially manufactured at a Nimbus facility until 2000, later releases from 2000 onwards were produced by Failsafe Media. It's important to note that if a title was originally issued before 1999 but features Mould SID Code 41xx, it should be considered as a repress from 2000 or later.

A sublime and transcendent memorial to one of Zorn's earliest mentors' Ennio Morricone. Featuring the soulful guitar of Bill Frisell set within the magical sonorities of vibraphone, harp and bells the music takes on an epic orchestral sweep with the added presence of special guest keyboard wizard John Medeski on organ and piano. Filled with beautiful harmonies, a driving rhythmic pulse and stunning lyri-cism, this is some of the most lush and spiritual music Zorn has ever written. Intimate chamber music to heal an aching heart performed by one of the world's most ethereal ensembles and truly music of the angels.
