The instrumental chant on the first track, the richness and touching harmonies, altogether make a great entrance for
this work. On all the tracks drummer delivers some excellent paces and double-tempos. Gerald uses many piano, that with the the soft and velvety chant fits perfectly with the sliding effects made on the seabord. You may think this gives the work a strong new-age mood; but the complexity of harmonies and the variety of rythyms situates the executions considerably more to the symphonic side of prog. Besides, sometimes Gerald uses some notes on the keys that are similar to a electric guitar. I couldn't imagine that a Seabord could have so many musical possibilities. All those features, along with the fact that there are lots of superb tunes on this album, leads me to rate it 4.4. Note 1: Gerald released at 2017 the EP 'Incremental Changes, pt. 1'. Too much close to classical music for my ears and mind. Note 2: he has a masters degree in Multimedia and Software development. Applying this knowledge to the keys on his keyboards, as well as his very fortunate technology-based clothes, makes a splendid visual impact on his performances (maybe his passage as a musician for Cirque de Soleil helped). Some of these inovations were used by Jordan Rudess on stage during concerts by Dream Theater.
