Main Theme - "A Clockwork Orange" Performed by Denise Hewitt

Originally written by Henry Purcell (1659 - 1695) for the Funeral March of Queen Mary II (Died 28th December 1694) - This 17th Century Classic Processional Music was adapted and abridged for the 1971 film "A Clockwork Orange" which was directed by Stanley Kubrick. The electronic synthesized soundtrack was composed by Wendy Carlos, together with Rachel Elkind, including adaptations of several other extremely well known classical music compositions including several parts of Beethoven's Chorale 9th Symphony. The full soundtrack also includes excerpts from the William Tell Overture, the Thieving Magpie, Land of Hope and Glory, and the well-known 1st and 4th Pomp and Circumstance Marches composed by Sir Edward Elgar.

Wendy Carlos has been one of my musical inspirations and role models since my teenage years with her revolutionary & futuristic Moog Synthesizer adaptations that include "Switched-on-Bach" from way back in 1968, and of course the highly creative soundtrack for "A Clockwork Orange".

This very personal interpretation of Henry Purcell's - "Music for the Funeral March & Procession of Queen Mary II" (1694) is performed on a 1990s Technics PR60 Electronic Keyboard by amateur transgendered musician - Miss Denise Hewitt.

[MissDeniseHewitt]

@jrafowle - I wanted to reflect some of the surrealism and symbolism from the original movie in my own personal recording! Wishing you a fantastic Easter Weekend:) Warm Wishes - Denise

Hmmm... I can honestly say that I've never seen a transgendered pianist play the "A Clockwork Orange" arrangement of "Music for the Funeral of Queen Mary" sitting on a stool that matches their dress until now.

Really, though, I love this arrangement. Very nice playing. I'm in a choir, so my piano talent doesn't span much beyond playing my own part on a piano. It blows my mind how well some people can play.

Do you use your musical talents for a living, or are you just an apt piano hobbyist?

[GBscottieUK]

You need an Arp Solina to go with that nice keyboard. Well done :)

[Lilinou35]

@MissDeniseHewitt Ok Thanks you are not furious for my question, I don't understand all your (message) ! I saw in Your Youtube Bio. Ok It's not a problem. Warm Wishes from France to England too ;) Bye
