It is hoped that the Fantasy will inspire a discussion about what is life and what is non-life, a topic which no longer just belongs to the confines of medicine but invites the participation of artists, musicians, psychologists, sociologists, philosophers, engineers, politicians and more.\u003cbr\u003e Recorded at Abbey Road Studios, the Lim Fantasy draws inspiration from 15 original songs composed for a proposed musical, ALAN. It unfolds the story of an inanimate, ALAN, and the journey of its soul, twice teleported, from an animate to inanimate and ultimately, into a human - brought to life through the performance of pianist Tedd Joselson, alongside the London Symphony Orchestra conducted by Arthur Fagen, an electric guitar heralding a New World Order and a choral ensemble, London Voices, echoing ‘Synthetic DNA’ as the inanimate undergoes its transformation and pleads, through a solo\u003cbr\u003evoice in the final Act, for its soul to be quantum entangled with that of a human; this is after all, a fantasy. \u003cbr\u003e The iconic Belgian-American pianist Tedd Joselson describes the work as “a truly magnificent addition to the realm of piano concerto repertoire… a masterstroke of creative ingenuity, which I am truly delighted and honoured to lead as solo Pianist.”\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTracklisting:\u003cbr\u003eLim Fantasy of Companionship for Piano and Orchestra: Act 1: Overture\u003cbr\u003eLim Fantasy of Companionship for Piano and Orchestra: Act 1: Jungle Song\u003cbr\u003eLim Fantasy of Companionship for Piano and Orchestra: Act 1: Alan Song\u003cbr\u003eLim Fantasy of Companionship for Piano and Orchestra: Act 1: Transition to Origins\u003cbr\u003eLim Fantasy of Companionship for Piano and Orchestra: Act 1: Origins\u003cbr\u003eLim Fantasy of Companionship for Piano and Orchestra: Act 2: Life on the Shelf\u003cbr\u003eLim Fantasy of Companionship for Piano and Orchestra: Act 2: Transition fo Companion Friend\u003cbr\u003eLim Fantasy of Companionship for Piano and Orchestra: Act 2: Companion Friend\u003cbr\u003eLim Fantasy of Companionship for Piano and Orchestra: Act 2: Off to College\u003cbr\u003eLim Fantasy of Companionship for Piano and Orchestra: Act 3: Timeless\u003cbr\u003eLim Fantasy of Companionship for Piano and Orchestra: Act 3: Transition to Ode to Alan\u003cbr\u003eLim Fantasy of Companionship for Piano and Orchestra: Act 3: Ode to Alan\u003cbr\u003eLim Fantasy of Companionship for Piano and Orchestra: Act 4: Synthetic DNA\u003cbr\u003eLim Fantasy of Companionship for Piano and Orchestra: Act 4: Transition fo New World Order\u003cbr\u003eLim Fantasy of Companionship for Piano and Orchestra: Act 4: New World Order\u003cbr\u003eLim Fantasy of Companionship for Piano and Orchestra: Act 5: Evil Professor\u003cbr\u003eLim Fantasy of Companionship for Piano and Orchestra: Act 5: Transition to Boy Scientist\u003cbr\u003eLim Fantasy of Companionship for Piano and Orchestra: Act 5: Boy Scientist \u003cbr\u003eLim Fantasy of Companionship for Piano and Orchestra: Act 6: Tribal Bushman Song\u003cbr\u003eLim Fantasy of Companionship for Piano and Orchestra: Act 6: Transition to Teleportation\u003cbr\u003eLim Fantasy of Companionship for Piano and Orchestra: Act 6: Teleportation\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Signum Records","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":39520993083548,"sku":"SIGCD670","price":7.42,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0130\/8714\/6043\/products\/LondonSymphonyOrchestra_ArthurFagen_TeddJoselson_LondonVoices-LimFantasyofCompanionshipforPianoandOrchestra.jpg?v=1616970910","url":"https:\/\/www.horizonsmusic.co.uk\/products\/london-symphony-orchestra-arthur-fagen-tedd-joselson-london-voices-lim-fantasy-of-companionship-for-piano-and-orchestra","provider":"Horizons Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
