Move 50
Twenty-four Australian composers mark Move Records’ fiftieth year with short new works gathered on this commemorative disc.
George Dreyfus ... Live!
In 1978 George Dreyfus staged a live one-man show of his own music, with Paul Grabowsky at electric piano and synthesiser. The long-out-of-print LP has been remastered and reissued on CD.
Music for Strings
String orchestra music from Wolf-Ferrari and Grieg to Britten, Grainger and living Australian voices. Gerald Gentry leads the Southern Cross Philharmonia, with Amir Farid at the piano in Grainger’s clog-dance romp.
Sebastian's Greatest Adventure
George Dreyfus’s score for the 1963 ABC children’s series Sebastian the Fox returns in a two-disc set: a CD of the soundtrack and a DVD of restored episodes with a newly recorded orchestral version.
The Brass Band Music of George Dreyfus
This release features Fanfare for a New Dome played by Melbourne's Kew Band. There is a great variety of music composed by George Dreyfus here — even a band version of his famous Theme from Rush.
The Film Music of George Dreyfus, Vol. 2
Move again draws on Screensound Australia's archive for the film music of George Dreyfus, with the first release of his unused score for Bruce Beresford's Tender Mercies (1982).
