Work that inspired 'There Will Be Blood' score set for live performance

Radiohead guitarist Jonny Greenwood's classical piece 'Popcorn Superhet Receiver' is set to be performed again in London.

The 2006 piece will be played by the London Contemporary Orchestra, conducted by Hugh Brunt, at LSO St Luke's on October 10, according to Ateaseweb.com.

Part of 'Popcorn Superhet Receiver' was used in Greenwood's score for the hit 2007 film 'There Will Be Blood', starring Daniel Day-Lewis.

Its use in the film is rumoured to have cost the otherwise-original score a nomination at last year's Academy Awards.
