In Looking Through A Glass Onion: Deconstructing The Beatles' White Album, composer/producer
Scott Freiman takes us into the studio with the Beatles as they create their bestselling album The
Beatles (commonly referred to as the White Album). Released in 1968, the White Album's thirty songs span
almost every style of music. Its recording took place during a remarkable year that included a trip to India and
the arrival of Yoko Ono. Mr. Freiman traces the creation of some of the Beatles' most memorable songs, such
as While My Guitar Gently Weeps and Revolution, from demo to final version. Mr. Freiman will also cover the
recording of Hey Jude. Mr. Freiman will discuss the studio techniques used by the Beatles during 1968 and
share many examples of rare audio and video of the Beatles in action. Musicians, non-musicians, Beatles
fanatics, and casual listeners have all enjoyed Mr. Freiman's Deconstructing The Beatles presentations.
