What a surprise!What a pleasant surprise!!!2 years after the wonderful ELEVEN MYSTERIES album,mastermind DANIELE LIVERANI is back with another instrumental album,guitar orientated,and ,once again,Liverani is leaving the keyboard work,being 100 % focused on guitar work!The band on this album is formed of very young musicians,the only one which was on ELEVEN MYSTERIES is the keyboard player MARCO ZAGO-the 2 others are new and very talented!Musically speaking,it's a concept album with a leading voice which is present on almost track with some spoken words.The album is very melodic,mid tempo orientated and each song has a strong identity and personality!Liverani is exploring new musical territories on this album,he has a very beautiful guitar sound and he offers plenty of space to the other musicians too.The production is excellent-it's a 100 % Italian business here-and that's excellent!Even the new label for Mr Liverani is Italian-SG RECORDS!The presentation is excellent-great cover art and nice booklet aswell,plus an attractive cd,nice printed!50.50 minutes of pure delightment,musical ear candy-from neoclassical influenced compositions ,even world music,progressive metal tones on this album ,everything is very melodic and attractive,showing another face of the musical genius of it's author!Great instrumental album,Liverani's fans will be definitelly delighted and enchanted-a great musical discovery for all the instrumental albums fans!4.5 stars for something excellent,trully excellent!

I'm pretty familiar with Liverani's work in Empty Tremor and Genius, but I've yet to check out his solo material. He's a great player and this sounds like a cool album!
