Radiohead star reveals solo performance

An orchestral piece by Radiohead’s Jonny Greenwood is to be performed at London's Queen Elizabeth Hall.

Titled ‘Popcorn Superhet Receiver’, the work is an exploration in white noise and will be performed by the BBC Concert Orchestra and conducted by Robert Ziegler.

Also performed on the night will be pieces by Pulp arranger and former Art Of Noise member Anne Dudley, and by Steve Martland, whose work has been released on the legendary Factory Records.

The concert takes place on November 24 and tickets are priced at £10.

‘Popcorn Superhet Receiver’ was premiered in April at the tiny St Luke’s Church in London, home of the London Symphony Orchestra.

Greenwood has previously released a solo soundtrack to the 2003 film ‘Bodysong’ and was appointed the BBC’s Composer in Residence in 2004.
