Album Notes & Community Reviews

Masterminded by Dutch keyboard virtuoso Rick van der Linden, this conceptual symphonic prog album relies almost entirely on classical adaptations and dense synthesizer orchestration. Based on a local Dutch legend, the album features sweeping, grandiose instrumental suites that heavily emphasize highly technical, classical-crossover musicianship.
