Reviews"Conductor Peter Rundel leads Frankfurt-based Ensemble Modern through 19 tracks from Zappa's canon to prove how well suited his material is to orchestral treatment...", Performance: Wild, Weird Stuff / Recording: Stellar - "...Zappa's orchestral music defies convention, often dissolving rhythm and harmonic relationships to explore the timbral and textural possibilities of the instruments....THE YELLOW SHARK is a fittingly peevish and bracing summation of his unparalleled musical overview....", "...Not your garden variety orchestral set...THE YELLOW SHARK goes a long way in certifying Zappa's long-stymied ambition as a Serious Music longhair...cracked cabaret and atonality abound: poo-poo jokes are, thankfully, omitted..." - Rating: A, 4 Stars - Excellent - "...Compiled from several European concerts, these are his most successful chamber pieces."
