Musicians - the Zappa experience

When in 1983, Frank Zappa worked with conductor Kent Nagano and the London Symphony Orchestra he wanted to create outstanding performances of some of his most challenging contemporary pieces with one of the world's top symphonic ensembles.

Zappa found the LSO were not prepared for a hard day's work and made so many fundamental mistakes he had to edit the material in the studio to rescue it. In 1995, In 1995, two years after Zappa's death, the two London Symphony Orchestra volumes were resequenced to reflect Zappa's original  performance order.
