Softsword (King John & The Magna Carta)

Continuing the release program for Rick Wakeman's President recordings, this time around you are knighted with "Softsword," recorded over a four month period at the beginning of 1991. The music on this recording is based upon the music composed for the finale of the 1991 Dickens Festival at Rochester upon Medway. Themes have been taken and turned into songs, others into instrumentals; additional keyboards, other instrumentation and new arrangements give the final result.
