Editorial Reviews
From the Label
This vivid and sensitive score orchestrated solely for lower string instruments provides poignant and sometimes startling accompaniment to the film adaptation of Peter Shaffer's internationally successful play. The album also includes excerpts from Shaffer's script featuring Richard Burton and Peter Firth. Richard Rodney Bennett was interviewed for the liner notes.First Time on CD!

5 out of 5 stars Another Reason Why the Film is Better than the Play.......2000-10-28

The haunting string music from one of the strangest films of the Seventies. Best listened to on overcast Autumn days after the leaves have turned... you'll think you're hearing the sounds of God. Although this excellent film has suffered a lot of misunderstanding and negative criticism over the years, this CD showcases one of the ways in which the film is superior to the original stageplay: Bennett's harrowing score. You'll long to transcend the disappointing work-a-day world, and "gallop" in the fields at night like the story's tormented protagonist.
