NEW YORK, NY (August 25, 2009) - Luxury publishing and media company Kraken Opus recently announced plans to produce the Official Michael Jackson Opus for fans all around the world. An Opus is an exhaustively researched and lavishly produced work-of-art that presents the reader with a truly cinematic experience through historic moments, rare photography and legendary stories. Kraken had been in detailed discussions with Jackson over collaborating on an Opus, which would have been the definitive publication on his life and career, shortly before the tragic, untimely death of the man who Berry Gordy, the founder of Motown, called: “Not only the king of pop but the greatest en tertainer that ever lived!”
This official publication, which is the only new licensed book endorsed and approved by the Michael Jackson estate will simply leave fans breathless with its sheer size and beauty. The 400+ page Opus is a definitive photographic record of the man and his music and will feature an amazing collection of previously unpublished photographs plus personal essays and comments from well-known names in the entertainment industry! Each page in the Opus will measure 13” wide x 18” high, will be hand bound in leather and packaged in an elegant silk clamshell case and weigh an astonishing 38 pounds! The Opus will stand as a lasting tribute to one of the most influential icons in the entire world.
Due to the overwhelming pre-order response via Ticketmaster, the exclusive retailer partner for the Official Michael Jackson Opus, Kraken will be offering fans an initial selection of 12 different languages so fans from all around the globe can revel in this piece of art. Each Opus will be printed in English and per the customer’s request, a manuscript of their preferred language will be sent to each owner and prepared so it can sit inside the clamshell box. Kraken will offer the following languages initially:
• French
• Italian
• Spanish
• Japanese
• Mandarin (Chinese)
• Hindi (Indian)
• Russian
• Israeli
• Arabic
• Portuguese
• Swahili (African)
• German
The Official Michael Jackson Opus will be specially priced at $165.00 so Jackson’s fans from all around the world will have the opportunity to own this special keepsake. All orders placed from now through October 30, 2009 will be guaranteed for delivery during the holiday season.
Karl Fowler, CEO of Kraken Opus, says: “Michael Jackson’s death shocked and saddened the world. He was a man we all grew up with and who touched all our lives through his music and dance. Our intention with this Opus is to pay the ultimate tribute to one of the world’s greatest entertainers, but in a way that makes it available to as many Michael Jackson fans around the world as possible.”
This will allow Jackson’s fans to obtain and experience a permanent work that truly reflects his iconic life and career. And thanks to chief marketing partner Ticketmaster, the Official Michael Jackson Opus will be available to fans anywhere in the world. Ticketmaster CEO Irving Azoff says, “Ticketmaster is pleased to be the exclusive marketing arm for the only Official Michael Jackson Opus publication.”
With Jackson being so heavily involved in charity work throughout his lifetime, Kraken has built in a large charity component to the Opus release. The first five editions of20the Official Michael Jackson Opus will include a signature page that will be signed by some of the biggest artists/entertainers in the music world. These five copies will be held on reserve and offered for auction where all the proceeds raised from the Opus will be donated to five charities approved by Opus and the Michael Jackson Estate.
