Exit Music (For a Film)

The intensity of Radiohead, Britain’s premier “avant-rock” band, is embodied in this haunting arrangement that will inspire young musicians to think outside the box. From an album that is orchestral in scope, but rock by instrumentation, this technically simple yet emotionally sophisticated piece includes extended techniques such as tremolo, double-stop pizzicato, non-vibrato and ponticello; however, the ensemble, together with its conductor, is free to interpret the music as they see fit. After all, there are no rules in rock & roll!
