"Duck-store" (cartoonesque recto-verso soundtrack dedicated to John Zorn), is a modest answer to "The classic guide to strategy" by composer/performer John Zorn – a work-in-progress initiated in the early eighties. The present piece is not a "re-reed-ing" of the original pretext but acts as a dual wink to the very personal/peculiar aesthetic of solo music developped by its author.
