Guildenstern
Guildenstern
Guildenstern were founded in the Hessian town of Russelsheim in the spring of 1976. They played keyboard-dominated progressive rock in the style of f.i. early Genesis, early Yes, Camel, or Eloy. The band didn't release anything, but some recordings with a satisfactory sound quality have been preserved. So here you get eight tracks recorded in the rehearsal room, as well as three pieces from their rock opera 'Life's A Stage', recorded live in Florsheim on September 29th, 1979. These can now be heard on the 'Guildenstern' CD. All tracks -most of them instrumental- were written by the artists themselves. Some are played on a doubleneck 12-string guitar. Guildenstern keyboarder Bernd Scholl has meanwhile released a lot of LP's and CD's with electronic music and has become one of the leading planetarium musicians in Germany.
