DESCRIPTION:Are we fans or Syrah? You bet Shiraz we are! \nFor this masterclass\, we’ll be exploring one of our favourite grapes: Syrah (or Shiraz if you’re Australian…) Whilst they’re both the exact same grape\, the terroirs and climates in which they’re grown have an enormous impact on the wine they make. So how can something be the same… but different? Join us and find out.

SUMMARY:Rick Wakeman: Six Wives + King Arthur
DESCRIPTION:The Return of the Caped Crusader\, Part 2: The Six Wives of Henry VIII and The Myths and Legends of King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table \nIconic keyboard player and composer Rick Wakeman CBE and his band\, the English Rock Ensemble\, take to the road again to perform his classic albums\, The Six Wives Of Henry VIII and The Myths And Legends Of King Arthur And The Knights Of The Round Table\, in their entirety. \nThe musical line-up will be the same as last year’s The Return Of The Caped Crusader Part 1\, with Rick\, of course\, leading the band on keyboards\, brilliantly supported by Dave Colquhoun (guitars and backing vocals)\, Adam Falkner (drums)\, Lee Pomeroy (bass and backing vocals) and Adam Wakeman (keyboard\, guitars and backing vocals). Mollie Marriott will again be lead vocalist\, with three yet-to-be-announced backing singers. \nRick comments\, “To still be playing both of these suites of music at the age of 76 is a remarkable milestone in my life. With a stunning array of musicianship surrounding me\, I only wish I could be in the audience watching and listening\, so all those sitting out there will have to do it for me!” \nDon’t miss this unlikely-to-be-repeated opportunity to hear two classic epics by one of the true legends of progressive rock and his band of superb musicians when they tour the UK.
