DESCRIPTION

Recorded earlier in 2019 at The Racket Club and Peter Gabriel's Real World Studios, and with a running time of almost 80 minutes, With Friends From The Orchestra features nine classic Marillion tracks re-imagined and accompanied by the In Praise Of Folly String Quartet with Sam Morris (French horn) and Emma Halnan (flute). Estonia," originally from 1997's This Strange Engine, is the first song to be revealed from the album and gives a first insight into the hauntingly beautiful and touching versions of some of the band's most beloved songs. Marillion explain: "So our brilliant producer and collaborator Michael Hunter wrote some new string arrangements and we took a week out to go to Real World Studios and record with our friends. The result has exceeded our expectations, is indeed a thing of beauty. We hope you enjoy the songs and agree with us that some of them are actually better than the originals(!). Whether or not you agree with that bold statement we're sure this work will move you."
