    PÄR LINDH at ProgDay 2017!

    PÄR LINDH at ProgDay 2017!

    PÄR LINDH’s musical career stretches back to 1977 when he formed Antenna Baroque. In 1979 he founded the symphonic trio Vincebus Ereptum. But with the changing musical times he spent his following years as organist, classical pianist, harpsichordist and drummer. While successful, he missed the calling of progressive rock.

    Beginning with his return to Sweden in 1989, he resurrected his early symphonic spirit with a band called Manticore, built the Crimsonian Label studio, and chaired The Swedish Art Rock Society. In 1994 he released the first Pär Lindh Project album, Gothic Impressions, featuring members of Anglagard and The Flower Kings. The rest, as they say, is history.

    PÄR LINDH has a long established reputation as a composer, master keyboardist, and musical interpreter. For his ProgDay appearance, PÄR will be performing solo and paying tribute to the late Keith Emerson, performing music from The Nice and ELP, as well as his own music from the Pär Lindh Project, and more.

    I remember the first time seeing him was when he sat in on pipe organ for Anglagard's first Progfest appearance in '93. It's nice to see he's still active. I always enjoyed his live shows, and his albums weren't half bad despite the obvious reference points.
    I'm holding out for the Wilson-mixed 5.1 super-duper walletbuster special anniversary extra adjectives edition.

    I probably should have made it more apparent in the original announcement, but this is a solo performance with Pär on piano. I just edited the announcement to make this more clear.

    Thanks.

    My question posed in the other Progday thread was just answered.

    Thanks Michael.

    Wow. Are you going to haul a full-on grand out to Storybook? Or will he be using someone's digital piano?

    Yeah...I wish... It will be a digital piano.
