FEATURES

  • 1xLP pressed on 140g Black Vinyl
  • Premiere vinyl release of a major work by John Barry, previously missing from the composer’s discography
  • Brand new recording of the complete score for SÉANCE ON A WET AFTERNOON (1964), one of John Barry's masterpieces for Bryan Forbes

DESCRIPTION

Quartet Records presents the vinyl edition of its brand-new recording of John Barry’s complete score for SÉANCE ON A WET AFTERNOON (1964), a major work previously missing from the composer’s discography. It was one of his masterpieces for Bryan Forbes that, unfortunately, remained unreleased due to the absence of master tapes. Composed for a small ensemble featuring vibrant percussion and woodwinds, it’s a mysterious, suggestive, unsettling score, reaching its culmination in the long rescue sequence. It showcases John Barry’s great ability to work with small, almost chamber-like ensembles, seeking the specific sound of each story without being an intrusive voice.

Leigh Phillips has painstakingly reconstructed and orchestrated the score, which was performed by the prestigious Orquesta de Córdoba conducted by Fernando Velázquez. Recorded and mixed by Marc Blanes, the audio has been meticulously mastered by Chris Malone and the spirit of Barry’s original recording. With an elegant design by Nacho B. Govantes and cover art designed by Jim Titus, presented in a hard tip-on sleeve, it includes liner notes by Jon Burlingame. The discs are pressed in 140 GM black vinyl, and it’s limited to 500 units only.
