Vinyl LP (Only 200 Available)
Only The World Remains – Harry Edwards Quartet
I’m very excited to announce my upcoming new quartet album of original compositions, Only The World Remains.
We will be releasing this record first in a hand-numbered run of 200 coloured vinyl LP’s in December 2019.
There will be only one edition of this vinyl; once each copy has a home, that will be it!
Don’t have a record player? This release also comes with a free digital download of the album.
The Music
This new record features 11 all-original Tasmanian jazz compositions written by Harry Edwards.
The music draws on a range of influences, including film scores, gypsy jazz, modern jazz, and classical music.
The album features instrumentation of two acoustic ‘gypsy jazz style’ guitars, violin, and double bass.
Check out the above album teaser clip, featuring extracts from four compositions (Infinitum, Thankyou, Forming, & Meditation #2).
