Blood On The Floor is a captivating musical experience that blends jazz, classical, and modern music genres. Composed by the renowned British composer Mark-Anthony Turnage, this performance features the exceptional talents of soloists John Scofield on guitar and Peter Erskine on drums, alongside the London Sinfonietta. The work explores themes of addiction, chaos, and redemption, offering a raw and emotional journey through its innovative soundscape.

This live recording was culled from seven September 1992 concerts given in Vienna, Berlin, and Frankfurt by the Ensemble Modern, a Frankfurt-based chamber orchestra that performs only contemporary music. Composed and conducted by Frank Zappa.
