The Enid Live in Concert

Concert Hall | Friday 23rd April 2010, 7:30pm

The Enid

British group 'The Enid' were formed around the founder/keyboardist Robert John Godfrey and his fellow founder-members, guitarists Stephen Stewart and Francis Lickerish in 1974. Almost like a combination of classical and rock, the band combines vast orchestral movements, exclusively classical instrumentation, rigourous construction completely well-written and romantic rock music led by composer Robert John Godfrey. For the most part the albums have some orchestrated sound, all created using the standard guitars, basses, keyboards and drums. The Enid are probably the top of the symphonic tradition.
The only band on the planet to have successfully fused rock based music with the power, dynamics and scale of symphonic classical music. They are the absolute masters of their art and their achievements over more than twenty years of creative work set them apart from everything else which calls itself progressive.
