Title: Middle-Ages poem
Product review: This album of Vangelis is not to be understood from the first listening. At the first very moment it seems dark and gloomy, and in the middle of the tragic IX movement one wants to shut the sound and just take a walk outside to the sunny street to get rid of that cemeterial feeling. He does not though - the music hypnotises him and only after the last piano movements of the epilogue is he able to take a move. A number of times it will take to fully understand the album spirit - with its gothic romance and Byzantinian church mood. But when one catches one - it realises the album deserves the name and fits the epoch of its purpose. It comes to me later that the music is El Greco himself, from infancy and childhood till the last days of his, postceded with a beautiful piano theme of Epilogue - the paintings left after him.
