The Best of Mike Oldfield's Tubular Bells I II & III

Priority Booking

General sale: Friday 17 July 10am

Over the past few years Tubular Bells I, II & III in concert has becoming the ultimate live celebration of this trilogy of legendary albums, as well as the gold standard for album revisit shows.

The 2027 UK tour will feature an expansive live group led and arranged by Oldfield’s long term collaborator Robin Smith. Performances will include the whole of Tubular Bells I in full, along with extended sections of Tubular Bells II and III, plus the worldwide hit single Moonlight Shadow.

‘Mesmerising, spellbinding, breathtaking, enthralling and electric.’ Bournemouth Echo

One of the most pioneering and influential musicians of all time, Mike Oldfield’s visionary Tubular Bells series spans three albums over 27 years. Tubular Bells was created in 1971 and released in 1973; Tubular Bells II was released in 1992 (the filmed premiere from Edinburgh Castle remains one of the most viewed musical events ever); and Tubular Bells III was released in 1998 (with the excerpt of Far Above the Clouds featured in the 2012 London Olympic Opening Ceremony).

With each album, Oldfield expanded on the incredible themes and theatrical variations he first composed at just 17 years old, continually innovating and pushing boundaries. Robin Smith, the Grammy-nominated Musical Director of the show, was completely mesmerised by Tubular Bells the moment he heard it. He studied Composition at the Royal College of Music, spent several years touring the world as a piano player, and was the principal pianist of the National Youth Jazz Orchestra before meeting Mike Oldfield over 30 years ago.

Smith has collaborated with Oldfield for more than three decades, conducting performances of the Tubular Bells albums at iconic locations such as Edinburgh Castle, Horse Guards Parade, and the 2012 Olympic Games Opening Ceremony.
