Penguin Cafe Orchestra - Music for a Found Harmonium

Ya desde su nombre, Penguin Cafe Orchestra nos anticipa que es un ensemble de un estilo o género inclasificable. Algunas de sus composiciones rozan lo bizarro; sin embargo, el conjunto de su propuesta es muy original, de modo que escucharlos es toda una experiencia.
La música de hoy es, sin duda, una de las más conocidas, con multitud de versiones y de apariciones en programas de TV, radio, films y producciones publicitarias.
Leemos de Wikipedia una pequeña historia :
    "... "Music for a Found Harmonium", which Jeffes wrote on a harmonium that he had found dumped in a back street in Kyoto, where he was staying in the summer of 1982 after the ensemble's first tour of Japan. He wrote that after installing the found harmonium "in a friend's house in one of the most beautiful parts at the edge of the city," he "frequently visited this instrument during the next few months, and I remember the time fondly as one during which I was under a form of enchantment with the place and the time."

Penguin Cafe Orchestra, casi una rareza...
