Biography

Rick Wakeman is a British musician, born in 1949, who rose to prominence as the pioneering keyboard player for Yes in the 1970s and went on to enjoy a successful solo career.

4.0 out of 5 stars Pretty good solo piano by Wakeman, June 27, 2000
This review is from: Preludes to a Century (Audio CD)
Preludes is another Wakeman cd of just piano, no synth, guitar or drums. I own all of his solo piano efforts and this is one of Rick's best outings; pretty inspired, good melodies, an overall happy mood and outstanding technique, as always. If you like this kind of piano works, I highly recommend Wakeman's "piano album" (for me his best, including instrumental versions of "And you and I" "Wonderous stories" and the beautiful "Morning has broken") the three "Air" albums and also his "Heritage suite".

5.0 out of 5 stars Piano music for the soul, February 22, 2005
By 
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Preludes to a Century (Audio CD)
A beautiful piano release, full of emotion and passion. Wakeman's trademark melodic sound waves are evident and his expressions of sensitivity denotes the maestro's personal views on a new era, a new beginning for the world and mankind. Preludes to a Century is an exquisite trait to the ear, but especially, the soul. The theme "Only a Dream" has got to be one of the top 10 piano tunes ever. Breathtaking!

5.0 out of 5 stars Rick at the top of his form, May 21, 2007
This review is from: Preludes to a Century (Audio CD)
This is a great collection of piano pieces. There is no dead air on this entire collection. I've been a fan since the early years of Yes and this is the type of music that shows that Mr. Wakeman is musically far beyond any of his contemporaries. No matter how this disc is labeled it is music for your ears, heart, and soul. Great stuff...
