Description

The Juliet Letters is the 14th studio album by singer and songwriter Elvis Costello. Originally released in 1993, the critically acclaimed album peaked at No. 18 on the UK album chart. The entire instrumental backing for The Juliet Letters is provided by The Brodsky Quartet. Costello had become interested in classical music around the time of Spike and began attending classical concerts. One of the ensembles he enjoyed most was the Brodsky Quartet. Once Costello and the Quartet got to know each other, they were keen on working together, eventually resulting in a full length album.Costello described The Juliet Letters as a song sequence for string quartet and voice and it has a title. Its a little bit different. Its not a rock opera. Its a new thing. The album is available as a limited edition of 2500 individually numbered copies on purple coloured vinyl and includes an insert. Elvis Costello with Brodsky Quartet Vinyl is available for home delivery from Vinyl Records London, only £26 +P&P
