The classical conductor Ulrich SOMMERLATTE was more than seventy years old when he felt enthousiastic about Progressive music. He recorded "Sad Cypress" in 1979 with his son Thomas at keyboards, a guitarist-singer, a drummer and a bass and flute player. The result, as one could expect, is a superb symphonic rock in which all instruments (Keyboards, guitar, flute & vocals) contribute to the success. His inluences come from GENESIS (above all), YES, CAMEL and GENTLE GIANT. The CD includes four bonus tracks, recorded between 1983 and 1987, which are even more melodic and moving. On "Keen City", he offers symphonic rock more based on synthetizers and samplers, and built around the keyboards sounds and lines, and uses only few vocals. This CD can be put in the same category as GANDALF's electronic symphonic music.
