  3. This is a wonderous album bringing a truly new slant on the music of The Beatles. Much like the (in)famous The Baroque Beatles Book by Joshua Rifkin (Elektra/Nonsuch 1965) it is not for the faint-hearted, but provides a most engaging listen and ultimately is very rewarding. Ms Berberian, a mezzo-soprano who died at the tragically young age of 58, explored much contemporary avant-garde music, particularly that of Luciano Berio, Darius Milhaud and Igor Stravinsky. Anything by her is worth a listen, but beware. you need to have an open mind and wide ears. She herself composed a piece "Stripsody" in which she exploited (her) vocal technique using the sounds of comic books. Truth to tell, this Beatles set is an artistic diversion from her usual music. It is worth noting that the original album artwork is by Gerald Scarfe. Thanks for posting this album, which hopefully will find favour with a new audience.
