If you dont have
the finest high quality audio equipment, don't bother to play this record.
For here Arthur Ferrante and Louis Teicher present some of the most unusual,
massive, and bafflebusting arrangements ever recorded.
In fact it is absolutely the last word in effects recording,
utilizing two "Gimmicked" Steinway Grands,
multi channel,
five track stereophonic recording coupled
with the most
unusual electronic effects you have ever heard.
Released in
1956 on the Westminster label Wp 6014

When Westminster
label decided to record a Soundblast album the idea of using
artificial
sound effects equipment for such recording was not even considered.
No, it didn't
have to be, for in "Ferrante and Teicher" Westminster's engineers
knew
that they had a solution to creating ideal music for the world
of Science-fiction
with conventional musical instruments.
Two grand
pianos handled in most extraordinary fashion,
with a bit of wood or rubber, hands or elbows in the right
spot at the right time, Ferrante and Teicher make their
pianos
bring the world of space to you.
