Album Notes & Community Reviews

The debut solo album from the accomplished, blind Italian session keyboardist is a sophisticated, highly melodic entry into the Rock Progressivo Italiano canon. Driven by Torquati's virtuosic acoustic piano and Hammond organ skills, the sweeping, symphonic arrangements perfectly balance complex instrumental passages with emotive, accessible pop sensibilities. The beautifully orchestrated record remains a highly respected, slightly hidden gem of the prolific 1970s Italian progressive scene.
