"Inflectio" is the second great fusion track with bass out of this space - its atmosphere is so much different from anythingĮlse here. "Maestro di Capella" has a nice accessible guitar chords with solo guitar in the background. Metal track here and it's good to take it plainly. "Rusalka" is another highlight on the album, slow but tasty guitar harmonies. Thundering rhythm and neoclassical feeling from the 80's. "Ghost of Versailles" has a more traditional structure but complex is pretty diverse, still. Great combination, complex soloing married with attractive lead motive.
