Upcoming / Love The Seattle Rock Orchestra Will Play New Songs, and Beck's Fancy Sheet Music Album, Song Reader, on January 12
Posted by Megan Seling on Thu, Jan 3, 2013 at 11:12 AM
Remember when Beck released his new "album," Song Reader, which was a collection of sheet music? Well on January 12, you'll get a chance to hear the Seattle Rock Orchestra's take on the arrangements when they perform the songs as part of their annual New Works show. Other pieces "will explore the musical motifs of a different decade or genre in pop music."
Guest vocalists, composers, and musicians for the evening include Evan Flory-Barnes, Nat Evans, Ian Williams, and Tamara Power-Drutis. Tickets are available here.
For a taste of what's to come, here's a video of the Rock Orchestra performing "Old Shanghai" by Beck:
