This review is from: Delius - Song of Summer (DVD)

I also saw this many, many years ago and would love a DVD that I can see again. If anyone finds out that a USA-friendly copy is avaiable, please post a line. The music, story and the acting were captivating!

This review is from: Delius - Song of Summer (DVD)

I would really like to get this film for USA format. I can't understand why all of Ken Russel's films are not more available.

I saw this film many years ago on Public TV and fell in love with Delius's music.This is also one of Ken Russel's best earlier works.Way befor he went over the top.(Has anyone seen The Fall of the LOUSE of Usher?)

This is a beautiful film about a very complex man and his visions.

It would be a great addation to anyones Ken Russel collection.

This review is from: Delius - Song of Summer (DVD)

My first meeting of Delius works is The LP(ASD3139) of the EMI Co. sale of

The Royal Philharmonic Orchestra Conducted By Sir Charles Groves.

There was "A Song of summer" there.

This is a long-awaited video for me.

This is a very beautiful film in monochrome.

This is an episode of the assistant application of Delius who lost the freedom of eyesight and limbs for the sickness in later years and a young musical person Eric Fenby.

Fenby was not able to write perhaps, and a moving situation is projected symbolically as an image though it is cruel

(Though "Delius AS I Knew Him" is a base).

"North Country Sketches" is shown in the intro part and "The Walk to the Paradise Garden" is shown in the climax effectively here in the process from which "A Song of summer" is created.

Young person Fenby might have been disappointed at man of Delius's reality.

However, he felt Delius's music character it respected and it was the greatest worth.

Therefore, I think that it was possible that he follows to the last minute.
