Interview: Tubular Bells for Two
Tubular Bells is one of the signature compositions of the late 20th century on which composer Mike Oldfield played over a dozen instruments in this layered piece. Two musicians from Australia have taken on the challenge of playing it live with no backing tracks or computers. Oldfield himself has said, “Those guys are amazing. You should have them on your show.” We do when they talk about the challenge.
