Portland Cello Project Artistic Director Douglas Jenkins always said that he would never score out any Radioh 1ad9 ead arrangements for PCP, because the originals were perfect enough soundscapes as they are.

 

However, the serendipity of a simultaneous collaboration with the world-class wind quintet, City of Tomorrow (the only wind ensemble for the last ten years to win the gold medal in the Fischoff National Chamber Music Competition), and a top-notch new men's choir led by Stephen Marc Beaudoin (recorded and toured with Pink Martini, soloist with Fear no Music, and Executive Director of PHAME), made the temptation to take on this legendary album unavoidable.

 

The performance of OK Computer will be interspersed with a unique assortment of contrasting and complementary classical music.

 

Adam Shearer (Alialujah Choir, Weinland) will sing "Exit Music (For a Film)," but otherwise, the vocals will always come en masse from the choir.

 

Aladdin Theater, 3017 Southeast Milwaukie Avenue, Portland, OR. Doors 7pm | Show 8pm 

 

Cost - $15.
