Oldfield’s one-man symphony performance, masterfully overdubbed, is one of the great musical works of the twentieth century.

A soothing successor to the turbulent Bells, with deceptively simple pastoral and sea themes masking intricate overdubs.

An orchestral treatment of Tubular Bells turns out to be not much of a treat at all.

Another painfully crafted tapestry of themes that evokes the English countryside.
