His high range seems beyond what Fabio was capable of, which adds a new dimension to things. His solo projects have been very diverse and controversial, but I think for the most part we all can agree that he is a pretty damn good solo artist. If you are into Luca's previous works then you have to own this album because this one is his best work so far, but if you're not into the music of this Italian genius, then I guess this album will be a great introduction for his skillful musical career. Luca should be proud of this, but it kinda sucks that he wants to put the Rhapsody name to it. I think I can safely say that there was not much doubt about the musical direction Mr.

Arranging choirs into metal tracks have become commonplace, but Turilli revives the feeling a listener got when he or she heard choirs in metal for the first time. I would like to start with music first. This really is a great power metal album album; I'm actually taking off 8 percent for Luna alone, once they actually release Fantasia Gotica I'll ascenving bump up the score a bit.
Angels Of Darkness" and "Prophet Of The Last Eclipse", this is filled to the brim with contrasting sections, operatic vocal work by multiple guest vocalists, and a slow build from a quiet and subdued introduction to an extravagant mixture of metallic riffing and 18thth century inspired symphonic arrangements. Tormento e Passione I have nothing against the covers of certain pop-orientated songs example given, Haggard -"Hijo de la Luna"but this one, in my humble opinion, is crippling the album.
Alex Holzwarth was briefly a full member of the band, but left soon after recording the drums tracks for this album and is officially credited as a guest musician. Clean, distinct sound of instruments, without synthetic echo from the early albums, and well balanced, equally represented parts for every band member, without damping the one turjllis for the whole benefit of, let's say, orchestral parts.

Screw it, everything except Luna is a highlight. Rosenkreuz The Rose and the Cross Oliver Holzwarth is finally getting the attention he deserves and Michael Ticheli is an awesome guitar player.
RHAPSODY, LUCA TURILLI'S | Ascending to infinity - Nuclear Blast
Luca should ascneding proud of this, but it kinda sucks that he wants to put the Rhapsody name to it. Hopefully, the boys in Rhapsody of Fire will get inspired by this album and try to one-up it with their next effort and in turn inspire Luca to write an even better follow-up and the two bands will create a neverending cycle of awesome symphonic power metal albums. One thing that still remains constant, however, is the ever-present "touch" of myths and legends, and it's one of the reasons I like this album as much as I do.
The best part of this song is the chorus; Luca played with a very interesting idea on this one, since it's a turillie epic at about 8 minutes he didn't want to give away the chorus right away. It begins with a fantastic guitar driven intro, reminiscent of speed metal of the likes of Malmsteen, with perfectly articulated arpeggios that would make any guitarist jealous.
Luca Turilli’s Rhapsody – Ascending to Infinity Review
Interestingly naming his new project Luca Turilli's Rhapsody, he made his creative intentions clear: His high range seems beyond what Fabio was capable of, which adds a new dimension to things. What is more epic than mythology hailing from all over the world? While it is really good, this is nothing new; the first half of this album is really fresh and unusual, yet really really good.

The talented bassist Patrice Guers stayed with Luca as a solid team in this record, the strong bass sound walk around the power metal riffs perfectly and floats on the surface of the rhythm guitars, and sometimes behind the lead guitars, songs like albuk Of The Titans" show the skillful work and the collection of influences that cover the bass performance.
The only issue I have with this album is Luna.
This was always clearly agreed with my ex-colleague Alex Staropoli. The rest of this album is a great Rhapsody album and Alessandro Conti is an awesome singer, I absolutely love his range and he does a really good job with the more operatic stuff like in Tormento e Passione, this is definitely a must buy album and I recommend it to all power metal fans. The limited first pressing is released as a lush digibook with a page booklet, a bonus track turlllis a bonus DVD!
I really want to give this a better score, but Luna is turllis bad and Clash of the Titans is really average.

The songs where he does play a lot of guitar are bad ass. In fact, while the song titles and introductory musical material showcases what would be a newly born sense of eclecticism, the lion's share of this album somehow manages to keep itself nestles very firmly within the orthodoxy of Turilli's older works.
The three different parts to the song are distinguished, yet uniform enough to work together as a whole.
Luca Turilli's Rhapsody - Ascending to Infinity Review | Angry Metal Guy
All in all this is a very unique album for Rhapsody and fairly standard fair for a Luca Turilli album only with a bigger budget. Best viewed without Internet Explorer, in x resolution or higher. This album makes me really appreciate that college class I took on mythology. Bonus tracks for Japan: The deep meaning of the lyrics really touches my soul.
