Archäologie (CDXCVIII): Die 60er Jahre des letzten Jahrhunderts gehen zu Ende - Keith Emerson died, aged 71
Sein letztes großes Projekt - noch einmal aufgeführt im Juli 2015 im Barbican: THREE FATES
"Three Fates" is the symphonic truth about the composer Keith Emerson, which shows the potential in his music. Finally, he is realizing the projects of his dreams in a close collaboration with the Norwegian conductor Terje Mikkelsen and American guitarist Marc Bonilla. Great works can be heard with a four piece band and a full symphony orchestra for the very first time. Guitar phenomenon Marc Bonilla leads the brilliant band and maestro Terje Mikkelsen really fires up the Munich Radio Orchestra in these luscious orchestrations.
But "Three Fates" is about much more than simply music. It is about making Emerson's music resound in a symphonic scale. Conductor Terje Mikkelsen has the rock-and-roll approach needed, as well as total control over the symphony orchestra in break-neck ensemble with the Keith Emerson Band. In many ways, "Three Fates" completes the circle: Emerson brought classics into rock - now it is Emerson's own music being performed by a classical orchestra.
Keith Emerson says: "Although I have been involved with orchestras and also jazz, blues and rock since the sixties, without doubt I consider this to be the most important album since the ELP days."

Keith was in this band around September 1965 and stayed til end of 1966/Jan. 1967
View on YouTube - Sein Solo ab 1'51!
In der Besetzung spielten die u.a. im Marquee Club, - am 3. September 1965 mit diesen Kolleg/inn/en
und am 8. Oktober mit David Bowie & the Lower Third
Zum ersten Mal habe ich ihn 1969 - mit The Nice - hier gesehen:
Wenn man bedenkt, wie viele von den Musikern, die an den drei Abenden des International Pop & Blues Festival 1969 in der Gruga-Halle in Essen auftraten, bereits verstorben sind, ist es wohl so: Die 60er Jahre des letzten Jahrhunderts gehen zu Ende ...
Die GBlogSuche nach »Die 60er Jahre des letzten Jahrhunderts gehen zu Ende« hat 9 Resultate geliefert.
