Hi there. I don't know if it's in the public domain. This was a private recording of Brian's I think..sorry.

@@deliaderbyshireday @vince94 As far as I can tell the IEE 100 piece has never been commercially released, so it was a real treat to hear this rare excerpt at DD Day 2017. The BBC Radio 4 documentary "Sculptress of Sound" (2010) includes a brief interview with Delia about how she used the EMS Delaware synthesizer to create the piece, along with a short excerpt of her music. This documentary is still available to stream or download from the BBC website, and the sequence I'm referring to starts at 42m 49s. This interview with Delia is derived from an earlier R4 programme about The Radiophonic Workshop ("The Electric Tunesmiths", first broadcast 30.12.1971) [1/2].

@@deliaderbyshireday @vince94 The Radiophonic Workshop tape archive index on Ray White's website states that the BBC sound archive holds five reels for the IEE 100 project, the fifth being a stereo recording of the final presentation (ref: TRW 7397). I think that fifth reel may be the source of the clip played in this video, as Mark Ayres referred to it being a stereo microphone recording of the event (hence the added room acoustic of the Royal Festival Hall) rather than the original master tape of the music itself. There are also tapes of makeup elements for IEE 100 in the DD tape archive at John Rylands Library - these can be heard on audio files DD076 and DD260 via the listening device. (Vince94, in case you might not be aware of the setup to hear these recordings, here is a direct link to make an appointment to visit the archive. DD Day made an excellent documentary about the archive - available on their KZfaq channel, which I highly recommend! ). [2/2].

Sorry Vince, for some reason KZfaq isn't allowing an external link there. Not sure why. If you Google "Listening to the Delia Derbyshire archive" you should see the article I was trying to link to.

It was amazing to hear each element of Delia's arrangement in isolation, building up to the full mix. Still sounds like the future, over 50 years on!

A fascinating introduction to Delia's unique musical archive! The clip of her incidental music heard from 3.44 is beautiful. Do we know which film she composed it for?
@deliaderbyshireday7 жыл бұрын
Hi there David. Glad you like the film. I think the music at 3:44 is part of the make up tapes for Amor Dei (one of the Four Inventions for Radio).
@davidhuggins167 жыл бұрын
Thank you! Amor Dei is amazing. Great that the make up tapes survive. Was lucky enough to find an extract from Amor Dei on an old BBC LP recently - I think it might be the only official release from the Inventions for Radio series. It's on the compilation "50 Years of Religious Broadcasting" (1975) www.discogs.com/Various-50-Years-Of-Religious-Broadcasting/release/4348158

I wish I lived close to Manchester so I could go to the events and listen to the archive. Unfortunately I'm stuck in the USA for now... But like so many other people, Delia (via the Alchemists of Sound documentary, which I don't think is legally available to buy anywhere...) was my first inspiration, and the reason I became interested in creating electronic music. In 2009, I discovered a program called OpenMPT that has the ability to import uncompressed WAV files and re-pitch them on-the-fly, similar to the traditional Radiophonic techniques, and started learning how to use it. While I've gone in a different direction in recent years (making music with obsolete videogame hardware), I still use OpenMPT for most of the things I do, and I still think about the Radiophonic Workshop and Delia's music a lot.
