Wakeman with his band, the English Rock Ensemble, performing to a 5,000 capacity crowd live at the Karl Marx Theatre in Havana, Cuba (April 2005).

'Made in Cuba', presents Rick Wakeman with his band the New English Rock Ensemble performing to a capacity crowd live at the Karl Marx Theatre in Havana, Cuba. In April 2005, invited by the Ministry of Culture, the Cuban Music Institute and the Swiss foundation, 'Association Friends of Cuba' - Rock Keyboard legend Rick Wakeman traveled to Havana, to perform a series of concerts that will forever be recognized internationally as an enormous event for the Cuban people, and a historic moment marked by the importance of one of the first and largest official Rock concerts ever to be performed on the Island. This DVD captures the spectacular performance and the momentous event which will undoubtedly be worthy of an entry in the chronicles of rock music history. Wakeman devoted most of the concert to classic tunes from the 1970s, including songs from his 'The Six Wives of Henry VIII' ('73), 'Journey to the Centre of the Earth' ('74) and 'King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table' (75) albums, plus a recent stage favorite from the 'Out There' album called 'Cathedral of the Sky' and the YES classics 'Starship Trooper' and 'Wurm'.
