Description

Music from the August 2007 Melbourne Theatre Company's production. Based on a true story, Hannie Rayson's The Glass Soldier is a deep, sincere tribute to two generations of Australians that had little, but gave everything.

The music for the play is performed by the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra. Magnificent trumpeter Geoffrey Payne is featured in other tracks.

This rich and vibrant music, featuring the World Premiere recording of The Glass Soldier Suite composed by Nigel Westlake, exhibits the wonder, tragedy, love and resolution of WW1 stretcher bearer, NH Ferguson, who is immortalised in Hannie Rayson's epic play, The Glass Soldier.

The Melbourne Symphony Orchestra is conducted by Jean-Louis Forestier.
