The vast array of compositional, performative, and listening practices that have grown out of the phenomenon we can collectively refer to as “electronic music” have, in some way or another, engaged with an inherent and essential provocation: the coexistence of “artificial” technology with more “organic” resonances of musical tradition and human experience. A truly symbiotic relationship between technology and acoustics can alert us to the fact that what we might think of as “natural” tastes are, in fact, just as “artificial” as processes of digital signal manipulation and re-synthesis.

Recorded between 1947 and 1952, the Charlie Parker With Strings albums showcased the legendary bebop saxophonist performing standards and ballads backed by a small classical string ensemble and jazz rhythm section. Although somewhat controversial when first released, the strings sessions are largely considered landmarks for orchestral jazz productions and rank among the best albums in Parker's discography.
