PEACE

The Venegas Brothers set up a big circus inviting many musicians from all over the world to speak on the theme of War. To name just one, Jon Camp, former Renaissance bassist. No prog addict could exist without knowing this guy. And a group of Brazilian singers with correct pronunciation and beautiful voices. I only know how to call this work a masterpiece (!!!). My God, 147 minutes!!! It is impossible to review the entire work, and I must mention some additional details. Being a double album that evolved in history, we traveled in time and the world with Luis and Paulo Venegas. In the first CD painful moments like the Wounded Knee massacre, the horrors of the women of Auschwitz and the atom bomb. On the second CD we find the modern war and the problem of landmines, sung by the Blackheart Orchestra duo (Chryssy Mostyn's voice is almost a Kate Bush) the killer drones and the memory of Srebrenica. Interesting addition of ethnic themes and instruments that accompany this work. The male voices I was able to identify as the brothers remind me a lot of a young Peter Gabriel and his current huskier voice. This is an interesting detail. Luis has a sweeter and more melodic voice. Paulo has power and a delicious hoarseness. They're not from the Island, but deserve a positive commentary. I just wonder where Ars Pro Vita's next job is going. Just to make it clear, Peace is a masterpiece.
