Product Details


Product Description

Ghostly Flickerings was composed in 2006, originally as part of John Carbons third opera Out of this World (2007). The opera, with a libretto by Dorothy Louise, centers on the debate that Doyle and Houdini had about life beyond the grave. Other images and characters, including the ghost of Queen Victoria, and a shell-shocked soldier from World War I, are projected as "ghostly flickerings" at the very close of the opera. The undulating arpeggiations allude to the ocean music used at the beginning of Act II, which sets the scene at the boardwalk in Atlantic City.

This product was created by a member of ArrangeMe, Hal Leonard's global self-publishing community of independent composers, arrangers, and songwriters. ArrangeMe allows for the publication of unique arrangements of both popular titles and original compositions from a wide variety of voices and backgrounds.
