RZA is back with a new album—a recording of the score to A Ballet Through Mud, which the Wu-Tang Clan alumnus wrote and composed for performance in 2023 at Boettcher Concert Hall in Denver, Colorado. Performed by the Colorado Symphony Orchestra and conducted by Christopher Dragon, the score includes spoken word and orchestration that RZA says was inspired by revisiting his childhood notebooks. The recorded version will stream, via Platoon, from August 30.
RZA said in a press release:
A Ballet Through Mud:
01 Aeolian Beauty
02 Clear Sky After Storm
03 Ballet Through Mud
05 Divine Intervention
06 Freedom of Movement
07 Soft Footsteps
