概要

This week, we journey into the whimsical, genre-defying soundscape of Penguin Cafe Orchestra (PCO). Known for blending classical minimalism with folk, pop, and world music, the PCO created a sonic universe all its own. We’ll take a closer listen to the evocative album Preludes, Airs and Yodels, a posthumous compilation that beautifully captures the essence of Simon Jeffes’ visionary work, from gentle piano-led melodies to quirky rhythmic experiments that feel both timeless and otherworldly.

Whether you're a longtime fan or new to the Penguin world, this episode is a deep dive into music that soothes, surprises, and invites quiet wonder.

Featuring:

  • “Music for a Found Harmonium”

  • “Perpetuum Mobile”

  • Selections from Preludes, Airs and Yodels

  • Reflections on Simon Jeffes’ legacy and the continued evolution of the Penguin Cafe ensemble
