Moments Worth Listening For

The fifteen-minute expansion of Mad Rush where the piano cycles create a physical sensation of suspended time.

The mournful entry of the cello on Ave providing a deep melodic counterpoint to the repetitive piano bed.

The dramatic, condensed intensity of the Stalteri version of Closing that ends the album on a sharp emotional puncture.
