  • Description

  • Tracklist
  • Stringent, organic and sensually mature - never before has the synthesis of classical composition and rock been so successful as in the three short orchestral works by the New York composer and guitarist Bryce Dessner, to be heard on "St. Carolyn by the Sea" with the Copenhagen Phil under the conductor André de Ridder.

    Dessner is better known to the general public as the guitarist of the American rock band The National - less well known is that he studied classical music, was later influenced by Morton Feldman and Steve Reich and regularly works with renowned ensembles such as Bang on a Can or the Kronos Quartet.

    Jonny Greenwood, guitarist of the rock band Radiohead, whose six miniatures from the suite to the film soundtrack "There Will Be Blood" complete the album, also has a background in classical music.

    The unifying element on this album, however, is not only the comparable artistic socialisation of Dessner and Greenwood, but above all their reference to primeval American themes such as expansiveness and longing, the processing of which has so far been reserved primarily for other musical genres.

    Bryce Dessner and Jonny Greenwood enter new symphonic territory with this album. An exciting journey and an outstanding album for the beginning of the year.
