Emiliana Torrini and The Colorist Orchestra Vinyl Records
The Colorist Orchestra formed in 2013, which also happens to be when Emiliana Torrini released her last solo record. The eight-piece ensemble quickly found themselves working with artists like Sumie Nagano and Cibelle, and specializing in re-orchestrating and re-composing other artists' work using classical instrumentation and their own musical inventions. Torrini was sufficiently impressed by their reimagining of her song "Animal Games" to agree to a collaborative project. They went on to work on a number of the Icelandic singer/songwriter's tracks, and she and the band put on a series of shows to perform them in their new guises.
