Description:

Newly remixed in glorious 5.1 surround sound, Paul McCartney’s Liverpool Oratorio was commissioned by the Royal Liverpool Philharmonic Society to commemorate its 150th anniversary in 1991. Coupled with the Liverpool Oratorio is a bonus DVD featuring the documentary Ghosts Of The Past, which provides an insight into the making of the work. An additional programme, Echoes, features Paul taking a nostalgic visit around his old school – now the Liverpool Institute of the Performing Arts. Here Paul performs In Liverpool, a song which has never previously been released.
