Rachel Flowers plays Pirates at EMEAPP

On March 9, 2019 Rachel Flowers performed for a very special event at the Electronic Music Education and Preservation Project (EMEAPP) - The Keith Emerson Experience - at their facility outside of Philadelphia. It was a small gathering of electronic music specialists along with family and close friends of Keith Emerson, celebrating his life and music. Following her performance, Rachel had the opportunity to check out a rather rare instrument, a Yamaha GX-1 similar to the one Keith used on the ELP recording of Pirates. Here she plays the GX-1 for the first time, with Vince Pupillo Jr. assisting. It was an incredible experience, at times emotional but also very fun, as you can see here!
