The National and Radiohead rockers on a contemporary classical release!
Bryce Dessner and Jonny Greenwood celebrate classical influences.
"Bryce Dessner is without doubt one of the most exciting contemporary composers working anywhere in the world today. We welcome his daring, his passion and his unique creative vision to the Yellow Label, and look forward to working with him." — Mark Wilkinson, President Deutsche Grammophon
It's a musical marriage! Deutsche Grammophon proudly presents the release of orchestral works composed by Bryce Dessner, known to many from the acclaimed rock band The National, as well as a complete suite from the soundtrack of "There Will Be Blood," composed by Jonny Greenwood from Radiohead.
Never before have classical and rock music converged in so organic, compelling and sensual a way as they do in the three short orchestral works by New York composer and guitarist Dessner on his new release St. Carolyn by the Sea, performed with the Copenhagen Philharmonic and conducted by André de Ridder. The explanation is simple enough: Dessner, born in 1976, has always had a foot in both worlds, classical and rock inextricably mingled within his musical bones.
