As previously announced, Clive Nolan is currently
working on his new project “Alchemy”. The world premiere of the show will take
place at the famous Wyspianski Theatre in Katowice, Poland on
February 22, 2013. This special evening at the Theatre will be
enriched by two additional concerts. One of the Artists performing that night
will be Paul Menel, who, along with his band, will perform songs from one of the
best albums in the career of his previous formation IQ - "Nomzamo". Today we
reveal the second band: RPWL.
The music of this German band
definitely has its own style – modern yet also drawing from the best traditions
of the prog-rock genre. All in all - brilliant compositions, catchy melodies,
mature and intriguing sound! The band was formed in 1997 in Freising, Germany
as a Pink Floyd cover band. After three years they started creating their own
music, based on their experience from their cover band era. Glorious reviews
after the release of their debut album “God Has Failed“ (2000), a successful
tour through half of Europe, and appearances at various festivals left no doubt
- the band had become a must-hear of the progressive/symphonic rock genre. In
march 2002, RPWL released a follow-up album entitled “Trying to Kiss the Sun“.
With this album, the band emphatically shed off their reputation of a Pink-Floyd
cover band and created a sound of their own. The band toured extensively through
Germany and Europe, taking their shows to a new level with a quadraphonic sound
system, which made their already huge live sound even more gigantic. Having
published their album in the USA and South America, RPWL gained fans and
recognition all over the world. In the next years, the band released the
following studio albums: “Stock“ (2003), „World Through My Eyes“ (2005), “The
RPWL Experience” (2008). „Beyond Man and Time” (2012) is their most recent album
and it will make for the main part of their performance at Wyspiański Theatre in
Katowice. As the band announce, it will be the last complete performance
of "Beyond Man and Time" album in Europe. The show will be recorded and
released on DVD by Metal Mind Productions later next year.

Just one week left to a special
show by the German art/prog rock band RPWL. The event will take
place on February, 22nd in Wyspiański Theatre in
Katowice, Poland. As the band announce, it will be the last complete
performance of their most recent album "Beyond Man and Time" in Europe. Yogi
Lang comments: “It will be the last chance to see the whole show, there is
no more show planned with this show so far! People will see all the characters
of the album traveling through the world of awareness shown in this spectacular
show which blends together ‘shadow theatre’, ‘theatre’ and ‘rock
concert’.”
The title of the album was inspired
by the Nietzsche famous words “6000 feet beyond man and time”, taken from his
opus magnum “Thus Spoke Zarathustra”. RPWL's story's protagonist is on a journey
and meets various characters, partly adapted from Zarathustra, as means towards
new insight. The basic idea in this is a so-called “revaluation of values” in
terms of a new way of thinking. In this world beyond man and time there already
are creatures of higher knowledge that the protagonist meets allegorically along
his way: the keeper of the cave, the willingly blind, the scientist, the ugliest
human, the creator, the shadow, the wise man in the desert and the fisherman.
RPWL's concept album “Beyond Man and Time” closes with a first resume, the big
noon.
The multi‐media live‐presentation
of this Concept Album with its stunning show elements and musical virtuosity
will be an outstanding experience! In addition to the songs of „Beyond Man And
Time“, there will also be several „RPWL classics“ and some surprises in RPWL’s
live set.
The show will be recorded
and released on a DVD by Metal Mind Productions in late Autumn/Winter.

This special evening at the Theatre will
be enriched by two additional concerts. One of the Artists performing that night
will be Ray Wilson who especially for this occasion prepared a
show entitled „20 years and more”. It will include songs from his current live
project Genesis Classic - “Not about us”, “Follow you follow me”, “Mama”, but
mainly tracks from Ray's solo career – “Tale from a small town”, “First day of
change”, “Another Day”, and others recorded with Stiltskin – “Inside”, “Lemon
Yellow Sun”, “Constantly Reminded” We can also expect the material taken from
his forthcoming solo album “Chasing Rainbows”. Ray Wilson will perform with an
ensemble consisting of a String Quartet plus Piano, Saxophone, Flute, Clarinet,
Acoustic and Lead Guitars. The second Artist is Clive Nolan
(Arena, Pendragon, Caamora) who, along with stellar musicians - including Tracy
Hitchings (Landmarq, Strangers on a Train), Andy Sears (Twelfth Night), Paul
Manzi (Arena), Damian Wilson (Threshold), David Clifford (Red Jasper),
Agnieszka Świta (Caamora), Scott Higham (Pendragon) - will perform his latest
