A proposito di questo titolo
This week, we journey into the whimsical, genre-defying soundscape of Penguin Cafe Orchestra (PCO). Known for blending classical minimalism with folk, pop, and world music, the PCO created a sonic universe all its own. We’ll take a closer listen to the evocative album Preludes, Airs and Yodels, a posthumous compilation that beautifully captures the essence of Simon Jeffes’ visionary work, from gentle piano-led melodies to quirky rhythmic experiments that feel both timeless and otherworldly.
Whether you're a longtime fan or new to the Penguin world, this episode is a deep dive into music that soothes, surprises, and invites quiet wonder.
Featuring:
“Music for a Found Harmonium”
“Perpetuum Mobile”
Selections from Preludes, Airs and Yodels
Reflections on Simon Jeffes’ legacy and the continued evolution of the Penguin Cafe ensemble
