"Like Fripp, Eno is totally obsessed with technology and philosophy, systems and theories, but is kinky enough to come off interesting rather than boring. He produced the Portsmouth Sinfonia, an orchestra whose only requirement is that you come to four rehearsals; any ability to play an instrument is optional. Part of the Sinfonia’s repertoire are such popular classics as Beethoven’s Fifth, the 1812 Overture, the William Tell Overture, the Nutcracker Suite and the Sugar-plum Fairy. The orchestra plays only the parts everyone knows. Their show stopper Thus Spake Zarathustra lasts only two minutes."
