Captured in London featuring Portishead's Beth Gibbons and the Polish National Radio Symphony Orchestra, this performance reinterprets the monumental 1976 composition. The sombre and atmospheric Holy Minimalism of the piece is uniquely grounded by Gibbons' haunting, non-operatic vocal approach, offering a distinct contemporary perspective on the seminal work.
