Overcast - The Music of Ed Partyka Performed by the Sunday Night Orchestra Featuring Efrat Alony

I am a long-time fan of Ed's music, but I've chosen to share with you a short sample of the only arrangement on the record, an eight-minute (!) version of "Time" by Tom Waits. This number really gives me goose bumps. I really should post a sample of Ed's music, too, since that's the actual point of the production ...

This is a funny little piece from the Gallant period. It looks back to the Baroque in the beginning and then gives a nod to the coming Classical epoch (and even early Romanticism). This was recorded this week in St. Severin Church in Severin Strasse in Cologne, where I am playing a concert there with the organist, Gert Schmid on this coming Saturday, April 26th, 2008 at 11 a.m. I captured this on my mini-disk player to see what was going on with the acoustics, my playing and so on.
