Hamlet DVD cover image

At Kaleidophon, Delia helped create the ghost voice and electronic music sequences[1] for Tony Richardson’s production of Hamlet at the Chalk Farm Round House,[2] which was then turned into the 1969 film "Shakespeare's Hamlet".[3]

Delia's sounds accompany the apparitions of the ghost of Hamlet's father and feature Nicol Williamson’s treated voice as the voice of the ghost.[4] The only other music in the film are a couple of brief trumpet fanfares, for which Patrick Gowers gets the entire film credit as the composer of its original music.

Extracts

  • 01:29-01:56 First apparition: "The same figure like the king that's dead"
  • 02:14-02:45 Second apparition: "This bodes some strange eruption to our state"
  • 16:36-20:02 Third apparition: "It is a custom more honoured in the breach than the observance", voice of Hamlet's father and clashes
  • 1:08:10-1:09:12 Fourth apparition "A king of shreds and patches", voice of Hamlet's father

Tapes

  • DD035: "Hamlet Copy Reels 1, 2, 3"
  • DD210: "Hamlet Reel 1 of makeup"
