Dont be discouraged, Rick Wakeman is a personal friend of mine, I am a professional musician, in fact i am a keyboard player, I have worked with groups like The bee Gees and Billy Joel.
This is complete Rubbish, Anyone can do a carbon copy of a song, Wakeman is pure improvisation, because music is in his soul, He always reinvents the song and makes it interesting. A real musician makes the song his own and does not play it like a record,
You are right. Tt was not all of Catherine Parr. It is just a tiny portion based on Wakeman's solo on "An Evening of Yes Music Plus". The three songs that Wakeman performed during the solo was "Gone But Not Forgotten", "Catherine Parr" and "Merlin the Magician". I belive this portion of Catherine Parr begins around the 3:22 minute mark of the orginal song.
Well done, mate! (But please, don' speak as you ate a cat «... Parr, forr neaw, and...».)

Start improvising and creating you own thing.

This is not Catherine Parr. You base it on a Rick´s solo from the ABWH tour.
