Yes, another outstanding Renaissance album, AMONG THEIR BEST ONES! On this one, the omnipresent & OUTSTANDING classical arrangements are really in the foreground, really participating to the melody! Clearly, Renaissance is a band that is better when having an accompanying orchestra! Again, the style is still strongly baroque symphonic. Just hear this combination of relatively modern keyboards and strings+horn arrangements: SUBLIME! Annie’s lead vocals are very loud, pure and never bland.
gs+horn arrangements: SUBLIME! Annie’s lead vocals are very loud, pure and never bland. There are 2 epic songs of around 10 minutes: they are among the best Renaissance’s tracks: “Day of the dreamer” and “Song for all seasons”. On the album, there is less acoustic guitar, but more clean electric one: it fits absolutely well with the ensemble! The Rickenbaker bass sounds “bottom enough”, and it is very elaborated and melodic, absolutely restless. Thinking about it, the album definitely sounds like “Song of Scheherazade”. There are many delicate percussions, it is absolutely graceful & magical. There are some excellent short tracks: “Northern Lights” is very accessible and catchy with Annie’s addictive voice: this unforgettable track that might be liked by many people!
EXTREMELY RECOMMENDED!
