Description
Keith Emerson (2 November 1944 – 11 March 2016) was an English musician, unsurpassed pianist and composer.
Keith became internationally famous for his work with the Nice, which included writing rock arrangements of classical music. After leaving the Nice in 1970, he was a founding member of Emerson, Lake & Palmer (ELP), one of the early progressive rock supergroups, becoming one of the best-known progressive rock groups of the '70. He gave a fundamental contribution to the development of synthesizers because he provided Robert Moog with the directives to develop the instruments.
He committed suicide when he became convinced he had lost his magical touch.
