The album is released by the Norwegian company Grappa Musikkforlag on the label Simax Classics. THE ACADEMY OF ST MARTIN IN THE FIELDS, conducted by TERJE MIKKELSEN, has recorded four works by Keith Emerson in Abbey Road Studio No. 1. The album will be released on what would have been Keith Emerson's 74th birthday November 2, 2018. This legendary performer - who became known all over the through the band Emerson, Lake & Palmer - is also a serious classical composer, interpreted by one of the top orchestras

of England.

Keith Emerson is the man who brought composers like Mussorgsky, Sibelius, Bach, Tchaikovsky and Stravinsky into rock music, at a time when this had never been done before. His open and inspired attitude toward classical music in the 1970s was a revelation for many rock fans. Nearly 50 years later, the time has come for Emerson's own classical works to be performed by the outstanding Academy of St Martin in the Fields. Conductor Mikkelsen has collaborated with Emerson on several occasions since 2006, including the Three Fates Project in 2011-12 and the Barbican concert in July 2015. He also participated in the Keith Emerson tribute concert in Los Angeles in May 2016, and conducted the memorial concert in Birmingham in July 2017. Keyboard phenomenon RACHEL FLOWERS features as piano soloist in a ferocious reading of "Toccata con Fuoco" from the Piano Concerto. A special contribution comes from Keith's grandson; 13-year old ETHAN EMERSON, in the beautiful 'The Dreamer' for piano and strings. The album is available on LP BLACK GATEFOLD and a LIMITED EDITION ON CLEAR VINYL. Place your order for the Limited Edition before November 2, 2018, and get your name on the inner sleeve!

Greg Lake Statement

To all ELP friends and fans all over the world, I would like to express my deep sadness upon hearing this tragic news. As you know, Keith and I spent many of the best years of our lives together and to witness his life coming to an end in the way that it has is painful, both to myself and to all who knew him. As sad and tragic as Keith's death is, I would not want this to be the lasting memory people take away with them. What I will always remember about Keith Emerson was his remarkable talent as a musician and composer and his gift and passion to entertain. Music was his life and, despite some of the difficulties he encountered, I am sure that the music he created will live on forever. My deepest condolences go to Keith's family. May he now be at peace.

Greg Lake on Facebook Carl Palmer Statement I am deeply saddened to learn of the passing of my good friend and brother-in-music, Keith Emerson. Keith was a gentle soul whose love for music and passion for his performance as a keyboard player will remain unmatched for many years to come. He was a pioneer and an innovator whose musical genius touched all of us in the worlds of rock, classical and jazz. I will always remember his warm smile, good sense of humor, compelling showmanship, and dedication to his musical craft. I am very lucky to have known him and to have made the music we did, together. Rest in peace, Keith.

I was in the lobby getting ready for a sound check. David had a band called "The Buzz' and used to play there Sundays. I'd never met him before but he came right up and started chatting like we'd known each other for years. "I've just come back from Paris having lessons with French Mime actor

Marcel Marceau."

My first thought was "why would he want to do that" but I was intrigued at the depth he was willing to go to discover art in all forms. Fashion, Film, Comedy etc. would inspire him and he'd use it all in his extraordinary abilities. In the 70's we both enjoyed fashion designer Kansai Yamamoto's designs. In the late '70's we met again in Montreaux, Switzerland. ELP were recording and living there briefly. David walked in and it was as if it was only yesterday that we had last met. His son, then named Zowie (now named Duncan) would play with my son Aaron, as they were both the

same age.

The world now says "Goodbye" and "Hello" to the spiritual form of a true genius. David Bowie.

------------------------- Tribute to Lemmy - 29 Dec 2015

Farewell Lemmy.

In the late 60's Lemmy and The Nice toured England. Lemmy was our Road Manager and he presented a formidable figure of someone that did not take any prisoners or suffer fools gladly. The Nice were then in their destructive art period a term used by Pete Townsend. Lemmy came up after a show. 'Ere, if you're gonna use a knife use a real one and gave me two Hitler Youth Knives." He was an avid collector of World War 2 paraphernalia - not that he was into the horrors of that war. No, far from it. His reckoning was that if you're going to send an army into war - dress 'em so they feel and look good. The English according to my father, who was with The Royal Engineers, had very scratchy drab outfits. Consequently morale was low. And the opposition looked well turned out. So that was it with Lemmy, he just wore black. Many have wondered why he chose the name 'Lemmy" In the late 50's and early 60's there was a BBC Radio series called "Journey Into Space". Lemmy was one of the characters. Lemmy was a big fan. He will be sadly missed at The Rainbow, LA. My sympathies go out to his band, his friends and family and all his many fans.

God Bless Lemmy,

Keith Emerson.

Music: Abaddon's Bolero by Keith Emerson ; Beyond The Stars by Keith

Emerson

"Keith had called me to tell me he was co-piloting a spitfire. I knew how important it was to him and couldn't miss it and decided to make a

film of it.

This film tells the story of Keith Emerson visiting the famous Biggin Hill the day before the 75th anniversary of the "Hardest Day" to co-pilot a Spitfire airplane. It includes Keith's recording of Abaddon's Bolero and the premier of his new composition Beyond The Stars, which together provide the soundtrack of his Finest Hour. It was filmed with 2 GoPro cameras on board and with Keith also filming with my small Nikon CoolPix. Stewart Young, Manager ------------------------- The London Barbican Concert - Aftermath - 13 July 2015 I remember the late great Frank Zappa requesting a meeting with me in

London 1969.

He was concerned at the attitude of British Orchestras. I couldn't help him much except using my limited experience to say that maybe tone down the lyrics of his songs. "Why does it hurt when I pee?" does not go down very well with the conservative orchestras of Great Britain. I remained a distant friend with him until he passed on. The late Jon Lord and I were the first to amalgamate electric group and orchestra in the UK and Rick Wakeman was quick to follow on. But individually we both went about the same concept with a 'No Holds Barred" attitude and a view to widening future generation's classical attitude towards improvisation. Bach and Beethoven were great improvisers in the UK as much as Charlie Parker and Dizzy Gillespie were in the US. The future of Prog Rock lies in the understanding of sound whatever part of the world it comes from. As a whole, it was totally wonderful under Tjerje Mikellsen's conducting - the electronics volume were contained to acceptable

limits.

And so it was obviously unsettling to deal with complaints about the volume. I wanted the orchestra to be happy and I wanted the audience

to be happy.

Sound check at the concert hall saw Perspex screens being set up to shield the delicate ears of certain members of the orchestra enough to destroy sight lines of the audience and disconnect me from the

orchestra.

I somehow contained myself. They knew there would be some moments that were loud but they chose the last minute for complaints. It was after all a concert to celebrate Dr. Robert Moog. I think the Orchestra could have been more discreet inserting earplugs and two of them leaving the stage in performance. Just imagine that you are talking to me across a table and I have my

fingers in my ears.

You would think that damn rude, right? Well, it only took a few of The BBC Concert Orchestra to give to the audience an uncomfortable feeling. As much as they are great musicians, a few of them behaved very unprofessionally which unfortunately may go against them and bounce against the great stuff the majority were in for. Rock musicians don't behave like this.

Love,

Keith.

------------------------- Barbican Rehearsals - 07 July 2015 Everything going well with my band's rehearsals. Thursday we blend everything together with The BBC Concert Orchestra. That's going to be fun. At this point, I am reminded of the great composer Aaron Copland saying that the first time he heard an orchestra play his compositions, he was overwhelmed. I can understand that- although it's not the first time I've put group and orchestra together. The majority of the works are composed by myself in co-ordination of arrangements with Kjetil Bjerkestrand and others. All conducted under the reassuring baton of Terje Mikkelsen. Marc Bonilla presents two of his really amazing guitar-oriented pieces with orchestra as well. And, of course my original Moog modular system will play a part in it

all.

Keith.

Barbican Center - 10 July 2015 - Keith Emerson: Three Fates ------------------------- Barbican Rehearsals - 01 July 2015 Just attended the first run-through of the forthcoming concert with the BBC Concert Orchestra. WOW! And that's before Marc Bonilla, Travis Davis, Ralph Salmins and myself join in. The Orchestra is wonderful and Terje Mikkelsen conducting is wonderful.

More later,

Keith.

Barbican Center - 10 July 2015 - Keith Emerson: Three Fates -------------------------

Chris Squire

It's taken me some time to adjust to Chris's passing. I probably

won't.

He was a great friend and a great musician. God knows the grief that his family are going through – let alone Alan White and Geoff Downes and ALL of YES. My heart goes out to them. May God rest you in his musical heavens, Chris.
