Opus Avantra's second album is structured as a concept album where the theme developed concerns the seven deadly sins (in order: pride, greed, lust, anger, gluttony, envy, sloth) with the addictoion of an eighth autobiographical vice (my vice) in search of a solution to the irreconcilable opposites (good and evil, light and shadows, avant-garde and tradition). In "Lord Cromwell.." Opus Avantra distances them selves from the synthetic proposal of their debut album, directing less decisively towards the territories of avant-garde and classical. A fascinating work where avant-garde and traditional music seem to follow two separete paths.<br /><br />Alfredo Tisotto - Stenway and Fender piano, Hammond organ, synthesizer, pipe organ.<br />Luciano Travella - flute.<br />Renato Zanella - Fender guitar.<br />Enrico Professione, Pieregidio Spiller - violin.<br />Riccardo Perraro - cello.<br />Paolo Siani - drums, percussion.<br />American Chorus Setaf (Gina Bianco, Susan Worshap, Cindy Brasher, Carl Adams) - vocals.<br /><br />Flowers on pride.<br />Avarice.<br />Lust.<br />My vice.<br />Ira.<br />Gluttony.<br />Envy.<br />Sloth.
