A one act Rock Opera.
Rock Progressivo Italiano
 

Voor de opera liefhebbers onder ons.


QUASAR LUX SYMPHONIAE performs a refined music with elaborated and successful arrangements and subtle melodic inspiration in the compositions. This is symphonic prog with huge operatic vocals. Both male and female singers sing in a style clearly influenced by opera. There is also some very good acoustic piano and acoustic guitar work as well.

"Abraham" is a 2 CD classically influenced symphonic prog rock musical exploring the dawn of Christianity. During one and a half hour, this rock opera mixes many influences, from gregorian to baroque or from romantism to today"s Progressive, and builds an amazing same solemn climate emphasized by the keyboards inspired by WAKEMAN. Musically we are transported into a multi layered symphonic landscape of shapes & colors.
