ROGER WATERS - Soldier, Narrator, Devil

ROGER WATERS - Soldat, Erzähler, Teufel

Although Roger Waters presented his first opera "Ça Ira" a few years ago, he is usually not regarded as a classical composer. However, the now 75-year-old already came into contact with classical works in the school choir of his hometown Cambridge and later became enthusiastic about Hector Berlioz' "Symphonie fantastique". Waters' latest classical coup is a new recording of Igor Stravinsky's anti-war piece "L'histoire du soldat". Interesting: Waters does not appear as a musician, but as a speaker.

ROGER WATERS - Late victory

He was tired and exhausted, had already talked too much the last few days and had to step down a bit today. What the manager of Roger Waters passes on to the representative of the New York record company in the best sergeant manner shows little respect for half a dozen journalists who travelled from all over the world to the Big Apple to speak to the former Pink Floyd mastermind. All dates on a rainy Thursday noon at the end of April will be severely shortened. A nonchalant approach, which is not even communicated to most of those affected, in order to avoid resentment.

ROGER WATERS - "The Wall" and its creator 2.0

He's smiling. Over and over again. He actually seems to be having fun on stage. From 2010 to 2013 he presents "The Wall" to the whole world. Make it clear that he and only he is the author of this monumental work. With its impressive concert scenes and bonus material, the new film "Roger Waters The Wall" documents even more: satisfaction with work. Joy with the people around him. I'm fine with myself. That wasn't always the case in Roger Waters' career. In 1965 Waters founded the band Sigma 6 with Nick Mason and Rick Wright. At that time he was still playing guitar, but was replaced by bass. "I was afraid to end up on drums," he was supposed to have said. It didn't get that far.
