Valentine's Day (John Zorn album)

Valentine's Day: John Zorn's Enigma Trios is an album by John Zorn. In 2014 Zorn took the audio from his existing 2010 album of duos, Enigmata, performed by Marc Ribot & Trevor Dunn on guitar & bass guitar respectively and recorded an improvised drum accompaniment by Tyshawn Sorey to create this album of ex post facto trios. The twelve (instrumental) tracks were given new titles.
