TORI AMOS Abnormally Attracted To Sin "That Guy"

This is the first installment about AATS.
I'll also post on http://www.myspace.com/johnphilipshenale
with some pics.


THAT GUY
Instrumentation-

Tori Amos- Bosey

JPS
Wurlitzer model 200 electric piano.
( Tori has an older model which i absolutely love).
We believed it once belonged to Country Joe and the Fish.
Chamberlin vibes.
Chamberlin flutes.
French Horns ala sampler.
Sounds that I created thru granular processes
for the ambient string sounds.
Live string octet entering at the modulation and playing to the end.
4- Violins, 2- Violas, 2 Celli

Mac Aladdin - EG - Back beat (60's style)
Jon Evans - Bass
Matt Chamberlin- Drums

I love the dramatic and subversive combination of Tori's voice and lyrics, and progression of the orchestration from the start ,thru the mod, to the fin.
I see it less stage and more film (60's)
But then again the modern musical has been jumping the fence in the last 3 decades.
So i guess maybe its both.
Listen to :
Sunday in the Park with George
and
The Light in the Piazza

Both are good mashups of modern classical, film and stage.
