Reviewing Rick Wakeman's Melancholia - Yesshift Ep 205

We review Rick Wakeman's latest piano album, Melancholia! In Rick's own words, "Though often misunderstood as mere sadness, melancholia - as Wakeman himself notes - is more textured, more intricate. It is a temperament as much as a mood: sensitive, thoughtful, loyal, creatively driven, deeply analytical, and quietly steadfast. That richer definition lies at the heart of this album. These compositions are neither bleak nor morose. They are generous in spirit, filled with moments of light and resolve, reflecting a mind that has learned to make peace with melancholy - not to escape it, but to transmute it."
