Albarn releasing Dr Dee album
By CMU Editorial | Published on Thursday 8 March 2012
Damon Albarn is releasing the score to his Elizabethan rock opera, ‘Dr Dee’, as a studio album. Part recorded in Albarn’s West London studio, and part with the BBC Philharmonic Orchestra in Salford, the long player will be available in various formats via EMI/Parlophone on 7 May.
Albarn will also be performing ‘Dr Dee’ at this year’s inaugural One-Fest festival, saying of the performance: “I’m really looking forward to the festival; Wiltshire in spring feels like a perfect setting for Dr Dee songs. Some of my favourite musicians are playing with me, it will be special”.
