An eclectic mix of electronica and classical music, discovering George Sarah for the first time was like finding a $20 bill in the pocket of an old jacket. Never straying too far from a strings section, bleeps, boops, and drum beats are sprinkled underneath tracks like the melodramatic "Manatee". Somber and complex, the only way to enjot "Sonata for Petra" is to simply crank up your stereo as loudly as you can bear. If Mozart was born in the age of Midi, you might get the same result.
You can enjoy winding down your week with George Sarah next Friday, Feb. 4th, at the Echo.
