While you wait and wait for Radiohead's follow-up to 2003’s Hail to the Thief, Jonny Greenwood will see an orchestral piece he wrote in 2004 come to life in the U.S. Greenwood penned Popcorn Superhet Receiver when he was the BBC Concert Orchestra’s Composer in Residence. The work will make it’s U.S. orchestral debut at New York’s St. Paul the Apostle on January 16-17 as part of the Wordless Music Series via a thirty-four-piece string orchestra. Radiohead has adapted an orchestral piece by Greenwood for the band in the past (”Arpeggi”), so perhaps the audience will be hearing a potential album track. Via Rolling Stone.
