NP : STARS END - David Bedford
My second listen in two days. An awesome avant guarde work performed by the Royal Philharmonic orchestra conducted by Vernon Handley and featuring Mike Oldfield on guitar and bass guitar loved by ( Me ) and derided as "artsy fartsy" by ( Martijn and Steven )
Thor
Besides Mike Oldfield, David Bedford has done orchestrations for a number of artists and bands including Roy Harper, Camel, Madness and Frankie Goes To Hollywood amongst many others ( superb arrangements on Welcome To The Pleasuredome ), all of these I am well aware of but looking on wikipedia ( a source I do not take as gospel ) it says he's also done orchestrating for a~ha? I know a~ha have had tracks augmented with orchestra but I didn't know this, do you know whether this is a fact? Perhaps you could look in some appropriate album credits?
NP : TWELVE HOURS OF SUNSET - David Bedford
An amazing work for choir and orchestra, so subtle it conveys static minimalism and yet it constantly changes ( the best way of describing this is that's it's like a more accessable, more listenable version of Ligeti's 2001 music ), I could listen to this over and over again and still hear something new in it, one of the, if not The most meditative orchestral works I've ever heard, I find it relaxing and beautiful.On Friday I ate a lot of dust and appeared orange near the end of the day ~ Bregt -

I just picked up for under $20.00 a 16 CD set of Mahler on EMI. I'm listening to his piano quartet for the very first time.

Yeah, I believe you've touted Bedford's horn before. Something I need to check out in a streaming service, for sure. Is there anything on youtube, I wonder?I am extremely serious. -

There's not much on youtube and even if there was, his work is so ecclectic it wouldn't be representative of his out-put.
What I was actually asking about is the orchestral arrangements for a~ha, I wondered if you could check the albums to find out which one(s) he orchestrated for?On Friday I ate a lot of dust and appeared orange near the end of the day ~ Bregt -

I agree, Tim, I've never been a big fan of the Barrett sound (even though I do own his 3CD solo box set), and think things really started with the second:
