About this album

This is one of Lalo Schifrin’s most adventurous 1960s albums, a playful yet serious fusion of jazz, classical allusion and studio invention. Released in 1966, The Dissection And Reconstruction Of Music From The Past As Performed By The Inmates Of Lalo Schifrin's Demented Ensemble As A Tribute To The Memory Of The Marquis De Sade reflects Schifrin’s gift for bold concept writing and sophisticated arranging. The album moves through Baroque and Renaissance references, bossa rhythms and blues colours, turning the past into something sly, modern and unexpectedly urbane. It stands as a striking example of Schifrin’s imagination beyond his better-known film work.
