Howard Blake - Spieltrieb - World Premiere - Edinburgh Quartet
Opus594 - September 2008.
This world-premiere of ‘Spieltrieb’ took place at the Edinburgh Quartet’s 50th Anniversary Concert in The Queen’s Hall Edinburgh on 19th February 2010.
From the composer:
"My relationship with the Edinburgh Quartet goes back to 1960, the year it was formed, when as a piano student at the Royal Academy I gave a concert in the Leith Hall with violinist Miles Baster. As a result of this concert Miles was presented with the great opportunity of creating a brand-new string quartet and he devoted virtually his whole life to it, leaving behind a great legacy of performances and recordings. I was much honoured to be asked to compose a work to celebrate the 50th anniversary and thought a lot about what form it should take. Beethoven has been much associated with them and is often considered the weightiest of quartet creators, with the last quartets seeming to move away from sonata form into some sort of freer space where he seems to be playing with ideas more than working with them. I remembered the remark attributed to Mozart when accused of not taking music seriously enough: ‘The verb that qualifies music is to play’. Beethoven’s near-contemporary, Schiller, in fact developed a theory that there is within all of us an ‘urge to play’ and this urge if followed can take our minds and ideas to the highest possible level".

Such a beautiful melody for a beautiful and sunny day today August 22, 2024.
First of all, I would like to thank V Horror UA-cam channel for uploading the full movie back in December 2022. I watched it when it was newly released in 1980 but suddenly out of nowhere it popped into my consciousness this August 2024 and I was able to watch it again last August 12. After 44 years, the melody of the Music Box is still so beautiful, indeed like a lullaby.
The Benedictus is more than just a composition - it is heavenly.
This theme will stick with me my entire life, and if that isn't the sign of an amazing composition then nothing is.
Merveilleux ♥️🎼
Its reminds you of pleasurefull days of going to the seaside.
I take it that Esther (sooo cute, sexy and refined !) was attached to the tower top with a harness; think I saw one !

Inspired and deeply moving. Couldn't stop the 'urge' to listen from start to finish.
Didn't recognise Jenny Agutter at first. Must be the clothes.

Как красиво🙏 Случайно увидела мультик, так понравился, очень душевный, спасибо автору за такую сказку. Очень люблю зимние сказки
This is the only part of the short film I've ever seen as a young child taken from the 1992 VHS Children's TV Favourites Volume 2. That VHS tape is as old as I am.
Me I had it too
Love both Queen and Howard Blake's albums from "Flash Gordon" As much as listened it a hundred of times the Queen album I always was bummed about not gettting Blake's complete score. Luckily, one day I found it on a cd store and make me happier than ever. Its that cd behind him. Awesome stuff he did on just 3 weeks, incredible. The way both musics melted together in the movie perfectly is totally outstanding. I hope some day a 2 cd album would be released with every single track from the film (both Queen and Blake's) in proper order. Mr Blake is a very talented composer, I just listened this morning his score for a lil film called "An Elephant Called Slowly" and it was a total delight.
Absolutely stunning atmospheric film. Sublime music. Shows the aftermath of war on its participants as well as the families back home. 10 out of 10.
Highly recommended.
I watched it first run in our local theater. Got the DVD.

The most (IMO) violent Tara King fight scene was in this episode. In fact, I think Tara in the Optics factory was the most violent fight scene in the entire series. Tara ( my personal favorite Avenger girl), more than " held her own"! However, it was Laugh In that took out the series, not the violence.

Bonjour.. Je viens de découvrir le terme de "penillion" avec le compositeur et harpiste Edward Jones. Et en cherchant sur youtube je tombe en 1er sur votre enregistrement.. Merci beaucoup pour votre enregistrement "Flûte et Harpe" c'est très beau, plein de douces vibrations..... Musicalement.. Elsy
👍Excelent and beautiful👍
What a gift this is! Howard Blake show us that simplicity is a great virtue. His music is first & foremost direct melody expertly arranged & developed. I love all of Blake's music, I hope for this piano music to be commercially released, & I look forward to more works from this fine composer--perhaps another symphony?
Many thanks for this lovely Violin Concerto, Howard--& for your Piano Concerto, which is equally fine. (I have them both on CD, as well as everything else of yours that's been made commercially available.) I am your great fan. Just days ago, I ordered the CD of your 1st Symphony, and I have to ask--are there others? You are one of the best living composers. Your work is a gift to humanity. Thank you!
RIP Sir Raymond Briggs and John Coates
Amazing 🤩
The music is crucial to setting the mood of this classic film.
Thank you Mr Blake! This sweet, gentle lullaby has haunted me ever since I saw the movie, shortly after it's release. I am so happy to have found your website and purchased the sheet music!
A very underated anti war film. Subtle, understated and beautiful story telling. Blakes soundtrack is perfect.
Simply delightful
If this is Op. 432 (Feb. 1992), why does the score in the video identify it as Op. 334 (1984)? And how can the recording be from 3- & 4 March 1991? This appears to be the piano-and-orchestra version (Op. 334) of his Concert Dances for 2 Pianos, Op. 271, and not the later orchestration of the latter (Op. 432). Please confirm. SOMM will soon release a CD of "Op. 432", but the excerpts online sound like this recording.
Terribly interesting. Loved his work on The Avengers. Sounds like the story of the producer of Space 1999 having her son do a score for an episode and booking a full orchestra to record it. He to showed up with nothing on paper to work from. Composer Barry Grey was also able to save the day. Many thx for posting!
Loved the first movement. The last movement left me feeling sad. I understand that this piece was written for a short film. I really wish we could hear the music's context and see it in the film.❤
This group has been singing in the Netherlands, a tour in the 80 years. I got really love for singing by this outstanding group. I still feel honoured that they were staying at our home for one or two days during that tour. I still love their music and of course from this composer!
Magnífica opera prima y al mismo tiempo obra maestra del maestro Scott, la música es el broche de oro.
The music is excellent, truly breathtaking. I still remember the feelings I had when I heard this piece in my childhood.
Would be lovely to have this on Spotify.
just a thank you so very much from Haiti...
