It's all my work, and while I had Russell Bennettas my inspiration, I also wanted the show to sound like orchestration by Ravel, Arthur Sullivan, and Elgar. I have no idea what Russell Bennett's orchestrations remotely sounded like for the original 1935 production; they are lost. JUBILEE was built FROM SCRATCH by Tommy Krasker and me n 1985, and every note in that vocal score is either my vocal or dance arrangement and it's my orchestration in the full score, entirely mine, no one else'. Beyond the stage directions and cues in the score in Tommy's hand, ever note in both vocal and full score is in my hand. I had no Bennett scores from 1935 to have a peek at, nor did his ghost appear at my bedside and dictate it to me. This false information that I was simply restoring Bennett's work was stated in the original 1986 program, written behind my back to my dismay, and perpetrated by Ian Marshall Fisher in his 1999 BBC broadcast. As you can gather, I am thoroughly sick of this false information being perpetrated.Thanks for the clarification. The orchestrations are a treasure. And I want a real recording of them.

I don't know who orchestrated the Judi Dench version, so it could be the original orchestrations, for all I know.
