The Six Wives Of Henry VIII (Live At Hampton Court Palace)

From booklet: In spring 2009, the 500th anniversary of Henry VIII's accession to the throne, Rick Wakeman finally fulfilled a long held dream to perform his famous album "The Six Wives Of Henry VIII" at Hampton Court Palace. It was the first time he had ever performed the album in its entirety. Joining Rick for the performance were the English Rock Ensemble, the Orchestra Europa conducted by Guy Protheroe and the English Chamber Choir. The show made the most of its stunning setting with spectacular lighting and staging. Only two never-to-be-repeated performances were possible and this CD perfectly captures this once-in-a-lifetime event.
