Cantata adapted from the film score.

Performers:
Narrator:Laurence Harvey

Contralto:Lili Chookasian

Tenor:Richard Cassilly

Gregg Smith Singers

MGM Studio Symphony Orchestra

Conductor:Lawrence Foster

Summary:

It is a solidly constructed work, a 44 minute modern day Faust legend ranging in idiom from traditional German classicism to contemporary tone clusters that occasionally flirt with atonality.

The score adheres to the slightly surrealistic English libretto by poet Alfred Perry. With the Versailles Treaty as it’s implied starting point, the allegory examines the 20th Century Gotterdammerung with the chorus cast as the gods, the contralto as Mother Earth, the tenor as the Devil.

(Harvey Siders West Coast Editor of Down Beat magazine as it appeared in Life Magazine September 29,1967)

It's not going to be everyone's cup of tea, an ambitious project and worthy of a listen in my opinion.

Thanks for posting this! I picked up an old LP version at a garage sale, but it was so scratchy some of the music was inaudible. Your copy sounds great!!
