Ben Folds – So There (2-LP Vinyl)
Product Details
A classically trained rock pianist who built his reputation on brutally honest pop songs and thunderous live performances, Folds had spent years conducting pops orchestras as a guest before committing this fully to the concert hall. So There represents the logical destination of that journey, with the concerto rooted in the same melodic directness that made his songwriting resonate in the first place.
Ben Folds takes a turn on his forthcoming album, So There, available September 11th. He embraces strings and chamber music yet still maintains a passion for his love of pop. So There consists of eight chamber pop songs with the very talented yMusic Ensemble and a 21 minute piano concerto performed with the Nashville Symphony. Ben Folds meeting and recording with yMusic became the bridge between the classically themed concerto and the contemporary chamber rock songs that live in harmony on So There. The combination is an inspired body of work on both small and grand scales.
