Masada: Beit, also known as Masada 2, is a 1995 album by American jazz composer and saxophonist John Zorn. It is the second album of Masada recordings.
Reception
The Allmusic review by Jim Smith awarded the album 4½ stars stating "John Zorn's absorption of klezmer motifs into avant-garde jazz is remarkable in itself, but even more extraordinary is Masada's utter command of the two genres' fiercely visceral energies... Simply stated, this is one of jazz's greatest groups".[1]
