The kind of quirky lunacy only possible in Japan, Syzygys is a remarkable instrumental duo that performs infectiously original pop songs on Harry Partch’s 43 note to the octave microtonal organ. With an uncanny ear and startling creativity—this music is as hilarious as it is delightful. Out of print for years, Tzadik now presents the complete studio recordings of this amazing band on one CD.
