Estuve meditando durante un tiempo hasta que la iluminación llego a mi mente y recordé cuales fueron mis orígenes en la música. Hace ya mucho tiempo, cuando era un adolescente, entre en el mundo del rock de la mano de lo que en aquella época se llamaba “rock sinfónico”. Mi fascinación por este género era total y el instrumento que me imaginaba tocando eran los teclados, con el tiempo comprendí que no tenía capacidad para asumir semejante tarea. Hablar de sintetizadores, órganos, mellotrones, etc, para mí sería un placer pero entiendo que para la mayoría de los mortales podría suponer un gran dolor de cabeza. Por todo ello creo que mi colaboración puede versar sobre los teclistas del rock. RICK WAKEMAN No pretendo contar exhaustivamente la obra y milagros de este genio, eso sería muy largo y tedioso, simplemente daré unas pinceladas sobre su trayectoria basándome en mi experiencia. Rick Wakeman nació en 1,949 en Perivale, Londres, y como era de esperar estudio diversos instrumentos entre ellos el piano, pero el bueno de Rick era un inconformista y no se regía por los cánones clásicos por lo cual fue expulsado del Royal College Music.

  • Over 100 Opera Makers
    #OPERAHARMONY CREATING OPERAS IN ISOLATION 1 3 WELCOME TO #OPERA HARMONY FROM FOUNDER – ELLA MARCHMENT Welcome to #OperaHarmony. #Opera Harmony is a collection of opera makers from across the world who, during this time of crisis, formed an online community to create new operas. I started this initiative when the show that I was rehearsing at Dutch National Opera was cancelled because of the lockdown. Using social media and online platforms I invited colleagues worldwide to join me in the immense technical and logistical challenge of creating new works online. I set the themes of ‘distance’ and ‘community’, organised artist teams, and since March have been overseeing the creation of twenty new operas. All the artists involved in #OperaHarmony are highly skilled professionals who typically apply their talents in creating live theatre performances. Through this project, they have had to adapt to working in a new medium, as well as embracing new technologies and novel ways of creating, producing, and sharing work. #OperaHarmony’s goal was to bring people together in ways that were unimaginable prior to Covid-19. Over 100 artists from all the opera disciplines have collaborated to write, stage, record, and produce the new operas. The pieces encapsulate an incredibly dark period for the arts, and they are a symbol of the unstoppable determination, and community that exists to perform and continue to create operatic works. This has been my saving grace throughout lockdown, and it has given all involved a sense of purpose. When we started building these works we had no idea how they would eventually be realised, and it is with great thanks that we acknowledge the support of Opera Vision in helping to both distribute and disseminate these pieces, and also for establishing a means in which audiences can be invited into the heart of the process too .

  • Dream Theatre – Octavarium
    Metal may be one of the most experimented with music genres. Different types of metal have been tried and loved by many, but none have the style and artistic value that symphonic/orchestral metal has. This style of metal uses the sounds of an orchestra to create almost psychedelic music. Many bands have done this form of metal before, but honestly not many have been known for it as much as Dream Theater. Dream Theater was formed in the mid-eighties by John Petrucci, John Myung and Mike Portnoy while they were attending the Berklee College of Music. They were originally known as Majesty, because Mike Portnoy commented that the Rush song “Bastille Day” sounded “Majestic”. In 1986 the name Dream Theater was suggested by Mike Portnoy’s father. Dream Theater consisted (at the time) of John Petrucci, Mike Portnoy, Charlie Dominici, Kevin Moore, and John Myung and in 1988, they signed their first record contract with Mechanic. In 1989, Charlie Dominici was let go and in 1991 replaced with James LaBrie as vocalist. In 1994 Keyboardist Kevin Moore quit Dream Theater to concentrate on his own musical interests and he was replaced with Jordan Rudess. This was the band they had until 2010 when Mike Portnoy left the band and was replaced with Mike Mangini on drums. They reached gold record certification in the USA and platinum in Japan for the album Images and Words (1992) and in 2005 they became the last group to use the Hit Factory Studios which closed on April 1st of that same year.
