Elton John is one of the most famous British musicians. He’s popular mainly because of his Live Music (he gave an impressive number of concerts throughout his career) but also because of his private life and the fact that he occurs in mass media quite regularly. He’s active not only by performing his Live Music but also because he enjoys taking part in different cultural events, charity actions, etc.
His Music has been changing throughout his career. At first he was creating both rock and roll and psychedelic rock compositions. Then his activity, connected with Music, evolved into more centered kinds of it - soft rock and finally pop. Nowadays his Live performances are mainly associated with pop.
What is the secret of the popularity of his Live concerts? First of all, he is a master of creation as far as his artistic image is concerned. Every Live performance with him in the main role is an exceptional experience for the audience. He is also good in choosing the projects which will gain him more and more popularity and affection of his fans. For instance, he created the Music to The Lion King (the song from which became one of the most popular songs in the history) and participated in a concert in Royal Albert Hall (London) to celebrate the 30th anniversary of Stonewall Inn events. A fragment of his song was also used in 2Pac’s composition.
Elton John’s Live Music can be called a phenomenon. Still popular and warmly welcomed by his fans spread all over the world. Even his Polish fans had the opportunity to listen to his Live Music – during a concert in Opera Leśna.
