Ghost Quartet by Dave Malloy Recorded live at the McKittrick Hotel, Jan. 12, 2015 Developed and Arranged by Ghost Quartet: Brent Arnold (vocals, cello, guitar, erhu, dulcimer, percussion) Brittain Ashford (vocals, autoharp, keyboard, percussion) Gelsey Bell (vocals, metallophone, Celtic harp, accordion, percussion) Dave Malloy (vocals, piano, keyboard, ukulele, percussion) Directed by Annie Tippe Production & Lighting Design by Christopher Bowser Note from the creative team: We hope you enjoy this recording of the original cast and production of GHOST QUARTET in this theater-starved time! The direction and design you see represent the original director and designer’s vision, so should you license the piece to perform, we invite you to get creative and come up with your own version; it would excite us very much to see wildly different takes on the piece. Thank you! _________________________ Music, Lyrics, and Text by Dave Malloy except: “Usher, Parts 1-3” includes text from "The Fall of The House of Usher" by Edgar Allan Poe "Monk" includes music from "'Ruby, My Dear" by Thelonious Monk (Embassy Music Corp); and "Midnight" includes music from "'Round Midnight" by Thelonious Monk/Cootie Williams/Bernie Hanighen (Warner Bros./Thelonious Music Corp); both licensed via The Harry Fox Agency, Inc. “The Wind & Rain” (traditional/additional lyrics by Dave Malloy) Annotated lyrics here: genius.com/Ghost-quartet-i-dont-know-lyrics © 2014, 2015, 2020 Blue Wizard Music (ASCAP) Video Production by David Pym _________________________ Side One 1.
