The Three Deaths of Red Spectre began, in very basic form, as a live-scored piece for the 1904 silent French film, 'The Red Spectre', about a demonic magician in his bizarre grotto. Composing following a narrative forced Raymond to move from the fairly standard folk song structure she was used to, to something following a classical structure, using movements. It has strongly influenced everything she has written since.The piece was recorded as a one take at weyrerTon studios.
!!! The version in the bandcamp player is an edited version! The full length track (7m:43s) is only available via the Vinylpostcard !!!
