About this item
The centerpiece of Radiohead’s OK Computer album, this work travels through several movements and weaves a sophisticated web of both torment and elation. A challenge for ensembles of all skill levels, this piece employs odd time signatures, col legno, snap pizzicato, and ponticello, in addition to other extended techniques that will provide a look at how the worlds of rock and classical music can collide with motivating results. An epic masterpiece of the rock genre finds a new home in this orchestral setting.

Composer
Radiohead
Radiohead are an English rock band from Abingdon, Oxfordshire, formed in 1985. The band consists of Thom Yorke (vocals, guitars, keyboards), Jonny Greenwood (guitars, keyboards, other instruments), Ed O'Brien (guitars, backing vocals), Colin Greenwood (bass, synthesisers) and Phil Selway (drums, percussion).
Radiohead released their debut single "Creep" in 1992. The song was initially unsuccessful, but it became a worldwide hit several months after the release of their debut album, Pablo Honey (1993). Radiohead's popularity rose in the United Kingdom with the release of their second album, The Bends (1995). Radiohead's third album, OK Computer (1997), propelled them to greater international fame. Featuring an expansive sound and themes of modern alienation, OK Computer is often acclaimed as the landmark record of the 1990s.
