Product Description

Amazon.co.uk

This album contains not only 30 minutes of music from Geoffrey Burgon's score for the Doctor Who serial Terror of the Zygons, but also 46 minutes from The Seeds of Doom, both of which stared Tom Baker as The Doctor. Terror of the Zygons concerned aliens living beneath Loch Ness, while The Seeds of Doom reworked the classic SF movie The Thing (From Another World).

Burgon's scores employ flute, clarinet, harp, violin, cello, clavichord and percussion, together with electronic processing by the BBC Radiophonic Workshop and numerous imaginative performance techniques. The result is a sequence of stark and weirdly unsettling soundscapes that instantly evoke memories of classic Doctor Who. Beyond the very occasional pastoral moment, melody is far away, making this a very different musical world to Burgon's Brideshead Revisited, yet sharing something in common with his acclaimed Requiem. The album tracks are taken from the composer's own listening copy of the original mono tapes, and while purists may object to the subtle stereo reverb which has been added, the sound is remarkably clear and detailed. The album also features Ron Grainger's familiar opening and closing title music. --Gary S. Dalkin

5.0 out of 5 stars Brilliant incidental music! 30 Jun 2000
By Chris - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Audio CD
This album is a masterpiece. Geoffrey Burgon's music, although quite different from Dudley Simpson's style, perfectly captures the flavor of these two classic stories. The way he combined the flute, cello, bass clarinet, timpani and electronic tones together was nothing short of genius. Listening to the tracks almost makes one feel as though they are in the highlands of Scotland or the greenhouse of Chase's mansion! This album is a must for Doctor Who fans and many thanks to Mark Aryes for making it a reality!

5.0 out of 5 stars One of the best music CDs ever made. 5 Nov 2004
By Captain Corv - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Audio CD
One of the things that made "Terror of the Zygons" and "Seeds of Doom" so memorable and atmospheric was the music. These two soundtracks are therefore a precious find. Among the CDs that I own it is one of the three best ones. Doctor Who soundtracks are difficult to come by, but if anyone can get this CD they should do so. Although it is said to be in mono, I have listened to it with earphones and feel no loss from this, as the stereo enhancement does add a good deal of distinction to the channels. It is very likely that people who are not Who fans will never find this CD, but it is truly great music, with the Terror music being a bit better than the Seeds music.
