More about THE WHITE ALBUM:
The Beatles' 1968 self-titled album had most of its songs written in the spring of that year when the band were at a Transcendental Meditation course in Rishikesh, India. Beatles drummer Ringo Starr said: "When it came to the White Album, I loved the White Album because it wasn't really mentioned, but we knew we wanna be a band again. I love The White Album." Specifically, Ringo loved the energy in the studio.
"I feel the same as Ringo does about this music, except that we get to perform this music live in concert,” said Benjamin J. McClara, Beatles Guitar Project Artistic Director. “This is my all-time favorite Beatles Record to perform live in concert. The audience always has a blast hearing a full professional orchestra play this album with our amazing guest vocalists. Adding the digital video component in the background makes our experience totally unique and a night our audience won’t forget!”
