The new version of Quadrophenia was orchestrated by Rachel Fuller. The project is the latest chapter in Townshend’s lifelong mission to break the three-minute mold of the traditional pop song. In the 1960s he defined the concept of the rock opera with Tommy, taking it a stage further with Quadrophenia. Conceived and written by Townshend in 1973, Quadrophenia went on to become a feature film and a theatre production, and was performed in its entirety on the Who’s most recent live tour. For the last three years Townshend has worked closely with Rachel Fuller on brand-new arrangements for orchestra, soloists and choir.
