Apparently this took a decade to put together: An hour-long eerie orchestral piece, operatic, celestial, and unmistakably Vander. Although understandably filed under Zeuhl, with the falsetto and chanting vocals, slow repetition and ominous mood, it's a classical and choral piece in its own right. Vander is a multi-instrumental talent, here ditching the drums for piano trills and synthesised classical instruments, and doing it brilliantly. Classical music is a long way from my comfort zone though so my mind eventually drifted elsewhere while listening through it, getting slightly bored despite the often complex nature of it, but there's absolutely no doubting it is brilliantly well crafted.
