Product Description

Gordon Getty, the renowned American composer and heir to the Getty oil fortune, presents "Usher House," a captivating and introspective album released on June 1, 2013, under the Pentatone label. Spanning a duration of one hour and seven minutes, this album is a profound exploration of themes centered around the enigmatic Usher House and its inhabitants.

The album is structured as a series of musical vignettes, each track offering a glimpse into the lives and relationships within Usher House. From the hauntingly beautiful "Usher House: Prologue" to the poignant "Usher House: And now it is time to bid our silent farewells," Getty weaves a tapestry of emotions and narratives.
