About
A real Prog rocker who'd like to do something with Classical music. Bands like Camel, Genesis, Rush, King Crimson, Yes and ELO were intellectual bands were greatly influenced by Classical music.
Sky, Loussier, ELP and Lloyd-Webber have done something similar in the past. Check out the latter's "Variations", attached. It starts off gently, and takes off after about 3 minutes. Nigel Kennedy is doing something similar with Chopin today.
Based in Fife/Perth. I have a fine keyboard player on board and we are looking initially for one or two players of melodic instruments, eg flute, violin, guitar. You must be able to read music and help with arrangements.
Influences
70s Prog, 70s Rock and Classical music : Rush, Sabbath, Budgie, King Crimson, Camel, Mahavishnu Orchestra, ELO, Bowie, Costello, Steely Dan, Vaughan Williams, Debussy, Holst, Messiaen, Alain, Bach, Sky, ELP, Lloyd-Webber's "Variations".
NOT influenced by Dream Theater, Tool, Muse and so on (however good these bands may be).
Equipment List
Don't you worry about that.
