Hear Jonny Greenwood Perform At Big Ears Festival ’14
In addition to headliners Steve Reich, Television, and John Cale, one of the big draws for this past weekend’s Big Ears Festival (which focuses primarily on experimental music) was Radiohead’s Jonny Greenwood performing with the Wordless Music Orchestra. The set was recorded by a fan and you can hear some of it now. Two pieces, “Loop” (which was debuted last month in London) and “Self Portrait With Seven Fingers,” feature Greenwood playing, while “Detuned Septet” is a section of his score for P.T. Anderson’s There Will Be Blood performed by the Orchestra without Greenwood. Listen to all three below.

As previously reported, Greenwood will also score Anderson’s new film Inherent Vice, out at the end of this year.
