Jherek Bischoff, Amanda Palmer - Strung Out in Heaven: A Bowie String Quartet Tribute (2016) [Hi-Res]

Strung Out in Heaven: A Bowie String Quartet Tribute is a heartfelt homage to David Bowie, created shortly after his passing. Jherek Bischoff masterfully arranged the songs for a string quartet featuring Serena McKinney and Alyssa Park on violins, Ben Ullery on viola, and Jacob Braun on cello. Amanda Palmer provides evocative vocals, with guest contributions from Anna Calvi, Neil Gaiman, and John Cameron Mitchell adding distinctive touches. The album reimagines Bowie’s iconic tracks through minimalist string arrangements, striking a balance between reverence for the originals and creative reinterpretation. Funded via Patreon crowdfunding, it reflects a sincere, community-driven effort.
