Zapp4: On of the most exciting ballads of Nirvana, Something In The Way,
was the inspiration for our cellist Emile Visser to arrange / compose
his version. It sure links to the inspiring sound world of Bela Bartok
(at least in our ears). We hope it pleases you as well
Here is a preview of our Zapp4 Nirvana project. We all grew up with their music and love the vital energy of the band!
A whole raft full of amazing cover versions here as part of BBC Radio 1's Fiftieth Anniversary celebrations. I'm only onto the second so far but Chris Martin's version of Graceland was great.
