Been a huge fan since the 70’s. When the Journey to the Centre of the Earth tour came through Memphis I must have been 16 or 17 years old. After the show we went to the Holiday Inn Rivermont for the post concert gathering and Rick happened to be there. He was so gracious and friendly as I shook his hand, introduced myself and thanked and complemented him for the amazing production and concert. He offered me a Heineken and was such a gracious, friendly and personal young man. He must have been raised in a very loving and great family. He’s a true blessing.
I've been following Rick from his keyboard youth with YES and his Six Wife's of Henry the Eighth...plus all his formative works from then on. He just gets better and better and is quite astounding. Rick does incorporate a lot of his previous keyboard works into his modern pieces and solos.....if you're a fan....you caught that too.
I wonder, perhaps, if Rick doesn't get the accolades he rightly deserves because people find it difficult to acknowledge true genius and greatness because ... to do so causes us to realize we are not. Rick will be recognized one day as he should. I just hope it doesn't take as long as it did for Mozart and Vivaldi. I think both of them would be pleased that Rick is continuing on with what they gave their lives to -- great quality music such as this. Thank you Rick.
I CANNOT believe it only has 57 likes! Where is the million of people who went to his concerts! HE is so great! SHARE IT please, every body deserves to experience this!
Years 60'-70' were the peak in music creativity in my oppinion. Such a lot of great music created, inovated in that period. Time of PInk Floyd, Queen, Genesis, Yes and many other great bands& artists! And Rick is for sure one of them in the Hall of Fame!
I've listened to Mr. Wakeman from waaay back in my youth, when he was first with Yes. I think I've heard everything he has ever put out, (although with the amazing amount of music he has produced, I can't be sure). My favourite albums of his are Journey to the Center of the Earth, The Six Wives of Henry VIII, The Myths and Legends of King Arthurand the Knights of the Round Table, The Word and The Gospels. My favourite while he was with Yes is YesSongs. These albums are ones I still listen to and enjoy greatly at least several times a year.
una trayectoria increible lo vi en argentina cuando presento 1984 hace muchos años y lo sigo con yes desde mi juventud es mi banda preferida gracias por compartir este exelente dvd
Rick has been working a lot on the orchestration, it is very different from the original album ; I like this version as well, it give another taste of what the Master can do. I would love to play the piano like him What is incredible is that he does seem to play with a partition ! what a memory !!!!!!😀😀 It's a pity there are not the two singers like on the 1975 video The Help version of the Beatles is amazing. The Beatles could not write such a big orchestration I do not like the "Eleonor Rugby" version, it does not reflect the sadness of this beautiful song from the Beatles
tres emouvant ,magnifique un grand artiste aujoud'hui on nous parle des artistes qui melange pop/classique il est un pionnier du genre .........................on a rien inventé a mediter
15:43 What a weird cinematic brain freeze ! They seemed to decide half way through the pan that it was a bad idea and they better get back to business !

One of the most brilliant men that ever lived, I always loved waking up to my dad playing his music on weekends , just so talented 💯💕
A gift from God . Long live to Rick.

I sincerely believe that his work will be a perpetual work over time.

I have given it a like, and have bought the DVD. Looking forward to receiving it.
Some like the piano, some others make a living playing the piano, Rick IS the Piano.

I 💓 Rick Wakeman Music.Thanks for sharing. Congrats to all the Orchestra musicians. 💟🎵
I am only a few years younger than RW ... I'd love to be put in the same nursing home as him :)
Wonderful concert by a gifted man.
A heart full of best wishes to Rick for his 70th birthday. Thanks for the music.
The Maestro. A real legend!
What an incredible performance by Rick! Check out his concert from Cuba.
Genius! As always! The symphonic accompaniment is perfect here.
Grande pessoa além de músico incomparável!

Masterpiece
Love him so much, what an incredible gift he is
6:31 Love it! I don't see that expression of joy much in classical musicians. Should be more of it.

I agree wholeheartedly
Wave after wave of nostalgia watching this - from 'discovering' him during his time with Yes 50 years ago... Where did my life go? Hahah.

Rick ....... you are a legend 🤙

53:48 I love being able to watch his fingers doing this.
26:37 Interesting how many times orchestra comes in late with this fast passage.
47:17 I love this run on the piano
Amazing Rick!
Who's the only person without music !
15:43 What a weird cinematic brain freeze ! They seemed to decide half way through the pan that it was a bad idea and they better get back to business !
The violinist from 11:11 - 11:30. What a funny guy! LOL.
Miss the moogs
still makes the rest of the world look like they're playing chopsticks
56:51 I'd love to know what he is thinking and feeling whilst he does this fast passage. Is it easy for him?
1:07:04 I think the french horn player has socks drying on his music stand.
