The Garden Of The Hesperides

DESCRIZIONE PRODOTTO
Reissue of their first album, originally released in 2007, but now with 4 Bonustracks , remixed and remastered and 8-panel-digipack (with new layout) Hexperos are the soprano and flute player Alessandra Santovito and the poli instrumentalist Francesco Forgione. The exotic Mediterranean fragrance of sensual percussion patterns, together with the low rumble of Francesco's double b and the soft keyboard pads enriched by the work of violinists Domenico Mancini and Alessandro Pensa, set the appropriate nocturnal atmosphere for Alessandra's soaring voice to cast its spell.Instrumentation and arrangements are often minimal throughout the songs, but skillfully mastered to balance grandiose dramatic moments against delicate pages, sparsely colored with a discreet Celtic tone that finds its way into some of tracks much through the contribution of harpist Francesca Romana Di Nicola. This seemingly ethereal touch is nevertheless ineffective in dispelling the predominantly somber quality of the album. In fact, much of the mood that The Garden of the Hesperides evokes can be compared to what one may find in Clical chamber music, yet it has been quite a few years since such ambiance has been so impressively comprised into a Gothic Neo-Clical album, and so perfectly used to display such mysterious sensuality and romance. A remarkable debut, which easily deserves a place alongside the best works from acts such as Arcana, or Dead Can Dance
