Debuting at #1 on Billboard’s Classical and Classical Crossover charts, So There showcases new pop songs by the multi-platinum-selling singer/songwriter/producer, along with the debut recording of Folds’ critically acclaimed “Concerto For Piano and Orchestra.” The album was recorded in just under two weeks in New York, Los Angeles, and Folds’ own historic RCA Studio A in Nashville and has been praised for its forward-thinking studio craft and creative spontaneity. So There is currently available at BenFolds.com, as well as iTunes and Amazon.
“Innovations in pop music come slower and slower each year,” Folds says. “I think one awesome door to walk through is this, the world of classical music from whence all our ideas of composition grew. That world is hurting right now and it could use pop musicians. And pop musicians could use the classical world because it’s so full of possibility and sounds. It’s endless.”
NPR’s “All Things Considered” heralds the new album as “the most loveable piece of music I’ve ever heard from Ben Folds,” while The Guardian writes “the new tracks with yMusic, the textures of the ensemble instruments – string trio, flute, clarinet, trumpet – are not ornamentally grafted on the music: they are the music.”
In March 2014, Folds premiered “Concerto For Piano and Orchestra” accompanied by the Nashville Symphony. Since then, he has spent much of his time touring around the globe, performing the three-movement concerto and orchestrations of his classic pop hits before sold-out crowds with some of the world’s greatest symphony orchestras.
