Acoustic Electronica
This is one of the best cd's I've heard in a long time. The concept is great: arrange classic electronic music songs for a string sextet. It is amazing to hear the great textures and interpretations this group can give to songs from orbital, the orb, moby, and brian ...

Peter Westergaard: Moby Dick

Peter Westergaard, Michael Pratt, ...

Albany Records, 2005

Vitamin Records, 2002

Soothing sounds of Led Zeppelin...
