Prospector's Quartet by Jonny Greenwood (Radiohead) Live at ACO Underground in Sydney

Venue: The Standard Location: Sydney, NSW, Australia Date: December 2, 2012

The live recording of Jonny Greenwood's 'Prospector's Quartet' in Sydney on December 2, 2012, showcased Radiohead's foray into diverse musical territories. By this time, Radiohead had recently released their eighth studio album, 'The King of Limbs,' in 2011, which marked a significant evolution in their sound, delving into more experimental and electronic elements. This concert with the Australian Chamber Orchestra highlighted Greenwood's unique ability to blend orchestral composition with rock, further solidifying his dual role as a musician and composer. It’s fascinating to see how Greenwood's work transcends traditional boundaries, as the quartet piece pulls from both the haunting vibes of Radiohead and his film score work, revealing the layers of emotion and exploration present in the band's artistry.
