Info
On March 11, 2027, Rick Wakeman brings The Wizard of Prog: Ultimate Highlights Concert Tour to York Barbican, a chance to hear one of progressive rock’s key keyboard voices in a set built around the landmarks of his long, story-driven catalogue. Trained as a classical pianist before diving into London’s studio scene, Wakeman became a defining part of Yes in the early 70s, shaping the band’s sound on albums like Fragile and Close to the Edge with that mix of precision, drama and melodic flair.
This tour puts the spotlight on the big moments: the symphonic, concept-led solo era that made his name beyond the band, with nods to the worlds he built on The Six Wives of Henry VIII, Journey to the Centre of the Earth and his Arthurian suite. Expect the evening to move between virtuosic keyboard themes, narrative passages and the kind of progressive arrangements that blur rock and classical without turning it into a history lesson.
