The Most Incredible Thing - Sealed

PET SHOP BOYS The Most Incredible Thing (2011 UK limited edition 22-track double CD set - Neil Tennant & Chris Lowe release the music for their first ever full-length ballet, 'The Most Incredible Thing'. Based on the Hans Christian Anderson storyof the same title, Tennant & Lowe proposed Andersen's story as the basis for a new ballet to Sadler's Wells in London in 2007 after a friend, the then Royal Ballet principal, Ivan Putrov, asked Neil if Pet Shop Boys would consider writing a piece of music for himto dance to at Sadler's Wells. Coincidentally a couple of days later, Chris suggested to Neil that 'The Most Incredible Thing' would make an excellent narrative for a ballet and, inspired by this synchronicity, they approached Sadler's Wells with the project. The following year, Javier De Frutos was chosen as the choreographer. The story is about a competition in a mythical kingdom where the King announces that whoever invents the most incredible thing will win the hand of the Princess in marriage and half of the Kingdom. What follows is creative, destructive but ultimately happy. Tennant & Lowe composed most of 'Act One' in autumn, 2008, and the rest of the score in 2010. The music is a combination of electronics and orchestra. They approached the young German musician Sven Helbig to create the orchestrations and at the end of 2010 these were recorded in Poland with the Wroclaw Score Orchestra conducted by Dominic Wheeler! Complete with an integral booklet, both discs are UNPLAYED housed in the book-style sleeve which remains sealed within its original hype-stickered shrinkwrap)
