Ben Folds & West Australian Symphony Orchestra - Live In Perth
Given his penchant for flouting rock conventions, it's not surprising to find pianist/singer-songwriter Ben Folds teaming with the West Australian Symphony Orchestra for a unique live performance bridging the divide between pop and classical music. Recorded on March 12 and 13, 2005, in Perth, Australia, the concert finds Folds and conductor Simon Kenway leading the WASO in orchestral arrangements of Folds's quirky solo work, culled mostly from his 2001 album, ROCKIN' THE SUBURBS, including 'Zak and Sara', 'Fred Jones Part 2', Annie Waits', and 'The Ascent of Stan'.
