[Sound recording] The Bandolero
Description
Recording of the song titled 'The Bandolero', created as part of the Music and the First World War project. Music and lyrics written by Leslie Stuart. Produced by Chris Latham, with David Hidden as vocalist and Alan Hicks on piano. This recording was made at Flat Rock Studios, Sydney, on 20 December 2018. The work is performed in the spirit of the time with some changes made for the modern ear.
Chris Latham, producer of this recording, notes: 'This is show piece song for a singer. This is novel in a song and is an epic ballad. The song goes for five minutes. It is exotic with a Spanish element. It is a great song that has been designed to be performed by a low baritone voice.'
