Dreamspiel

Felt represented Ukulele Orchestra Of Great Britain has recently produced its very own Ukulele opera, 'Dreamspiel', which was premiered at the Arcola Theatre's 'Grimebourne Festival'. The music is Written by George Hinchliffe and the lyrics are by San Francisco playwright Michelle Carter Dreamspiel is a response to ‘The Third Reich of Dreams’ by Charlotte Beradt, a journalist. While living in Germany in the 1930s, she secretly gathered the dreams of ordinary Germans, encoded them and smuggled them out of the country. These "diaries of the night", were independent of conscious will. They were, so to speak, "dictated to them by the dictatorship"... …The dream images are reminiscent of Beckett, Orwell, and Gunter Grass before Endgame, 1984, or The Tin Drum were ever written. They are painful, farcical, satirical and theatrical. When this is combined with the individuality and diversity which the Ukulele Orchestra bring to group performance, an audience is brought closer to the political realities of ordinary life; it's fears, prejudices and ecstasies.

For more more about Dreamspiel visit the Ukulele Orchestra Of Great Britain site here

Felt Music are very proud of our latest commercial success with Greggs. We were brought in from the beginning to find the perfect piece of music to encapsulate the Greggs brand, in what for them is a significant re-branding exercise. “If I knew you were coming I’d have baked a cake” - originally by Gracie Fields, we felt was the ultimate track and the clients did too. We were then asked to compose a re-record and we were lucky enough that we work with a Gracie Fields impersonator and so the track is bang on.

Day Of The Triffids:  BBC 1 - Airdate confirmed 

Epic film score for TV remake of John Wyndham’s classic novel Day of The Triffids, supervised by Natalie and Toby @ Felt music, is now confirmed to go to air on BBC 1 on the 28th and 29th December as part of their christmas season programming. 

Felt composer Alan Boyd carefully developed emotive and intricate themes for all characters and plot lines in the production and brought them to life in conjunction with Felt orchestrator and composer Felix Erskine who’s film pedigree speaks for itself and is growing with each project. Click here for more info on these and other Felt composers. 

The result is an outstanding orchestral score more befitting an epic hollywood production but equally at home in this high profile feature length BBC drama. Click here for more info.
