Detail : | Paul's thirtieth-sixth "solo" album release, and fourth classical outing. Credited as: Orchestral and Chamber Music by Paul McCartney. Originally commissioned by Magdalen College in Oxford to commemorate the 550th anniversary of the foundation of the college in 1998; this piece was scored by Sir Paul for choirs and orchestras, there are four movements including the work's centrepiece 'Interlude [Lament]' - a deeply moving instrumental tribute to Paul's late wife Linda, and features vocals sung in English & Latin by boys of King’s College Choir, Magdalen College Choir, Academy of St Martin in the Fields and EMI debut artist Kate Royal.
Note that there was also a version issued with a deluxe embossed hard-back digipak picture sleeve complete with 60-page picture booklet. The London Symphony Orchestra. The 16 page booklet enclosed with the C.D. features some wonderful pictures of Linda's artwork and very complete information of the music accompanying it.
