‘The Seeker’ (featuring Pete Townshend and Nakhane) is the first single from Rachel Fuller’s album of the same name.
Inspired by the timeless story of self-discovery and enlightenment in Herman Hesse’s novel, Siddhartha, originally published in 1922 and which to date has sold over 100 million copies worldwide, composer Rachel Fuller’s The Seeker is a musical reinvention of Siddhartha’s message of hope. With additional music and lyrics written by Pete Townshend, the album includes narration by the late Christopher Plummer, and features a dazzling array of performances from Pete Townshend, Sir Elton John, Nakhane, Emeli Sandé, Layton Williams, Sunidhi Chauhan and the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra.
A world premiere, one-night only performance of The Seeker to celebrate the launch of the album and accompanying illustrated novel will take place at Theatre Royal, Drury Lane on Wednesday 6 November, and will feature Pete Townshend, Alfie Boe, Sunidhi Chauhan, and more, together with the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra.
