A grand introduction to progressive rock
Renaissance's elegant fusion of classical and rock.
This 1977 album is a conceptual one, culminating in the band's musical ambitions. Annie Haslam's angelic vocals and orchestral arrangements create a fantastical worldview. Though set within the context of progressive rock, the band's emphasis on beautiful melody lends the album a universal appeal. It's a masterpiece that beautifully blends a deep understanding of classical music with the free spirit of rock.
