Based on the short story by Edgar Allan Poe, The Island of the Fay is composed by Edgar Froese and Thorsten Quaeschning.
It is the first appearance of violinist Hoshiko Yamane on a Tangerine dream record.
This work is the beginning of a new series by Tangerine Dream: EASTGATE'S Sonic Poem Series. Edgar Allan Poe definitely is worth a start, a novelist who long enough has been labelled as dark, mysterious and gloomy only - Poe was more than that - a true visionary.
Edgar Allan Poe's ‘The Island of the Fay' has been set to music by Edgar and Thorsten in a very exciting, dynamic and partly experimental way - a new violinist sets her maverick accents with electric sounds. It's the art of breathing life into a tale through strong music.
PS: You will find the whole but short tale of ‘The Island of the Fay' within the booklet! Enjoy reading but above all: enjoy listening!
