Deconstructing The Beatles LIVE: Revolver

Scott Freiman is a composer, a musician, and a software entrepreneur. He is the creator of Deconstructing The Music, a series of multimedia presentations about the composition and production techniques of The Beatles and other musicians. Scott has presented his lectures to sold out audiences throughout North America at theaters, museums and corporations, such as Pixar, Google, and Facebook. Scott has also lectured at colleges and universities and has taught a 13-part course at Yale University entitled "The Beatles in The Studio." He co-hosts the monthly Fab Four Master Class with fellow musicologist Kenneth Womack with whom he leads occasional Beatles-themed trips to Liverpool and London.

Scott is featured in eleven Deconstructing the Beatles films currently showing in theatres and available on DVD and streaming, and he is the host of the Deconstructing the Beatles TV series airing on most PBS stations in the United States.

"As a composer and producer, I have always been fascinated by the Beatles innovations in songwriting and recording," said Freiman. "It is truly exciting to listen to songs we know so well evolve from a home demo to a finished recording. There’s a reason why the Beatles' music continues to strike a chord with new generations of fans, 40 years after their last recording."

In many music polls, Revolver is rated the top album of all time. The 1966 album launched a period of studio experimentation for the Beatles that coincided with the end of their concert performances.  With memorable songs, such as “Eleanor Rigby”, “Yellow Submarine”, and “Tomorrow Never Knows”, the Beatles pushed popular music to a place it had never been. 

Using rare audio and video clips, as well as anecdotes about the creation of the songs, Deconstructing The Music LIVE: The Beatles’ Revolver explores the groundbreaking production techniques that went into producing this landmark piece of music history.  In addition to many of the tracks from Revolver, Mr. Freiman will also explore the creation of two other songs recorded during the same time period, “Paperback Writer” and “Rain.”

Scott’s multimedia presentations transport his audiences into Abbey Road Studio with anecdotes about The Beatles’ recording sessions, allowing fans to experience the evolution of The Beatles’ groundbreaking albums and songs.

Scott’s lectures have entertained audiences of musicians and non-musicians alike, from pre-teenagers to octogenarians. Once you’ve attended one of Scott’s presentations, you’ll never listen to The Beatles or any other music the same way again!
