Tranquil, peaceful and at times disturbingly
unrestrained, Steve La Cerra's second musical offering, "Flight,"
rises gracefully above this material world, flowing freely and
wandering about in the night sky
bridging the once wide
gap between present and past in a timeless display that stimulates
the senses.
The multitalented La Cerra takes the listener
on a true spiritual journey where music knows no boundaries,
but only a deeply rooted beauty that evolves throughout the ages
coexisting harmoniously with what was and what longs to be
The progressive nature of these flighty compositions explores
traces of the past, taking refuge only briefly amidst the shadows
of Genesis, before spreading its own wings to soar beyond yesterday,
sure to make a passing glance every so often before charting
its own course into the distance where limitless imagination
lights the way.
Every instrument here serves a unique purpose
in the creation of the touching soundscape that combines an airy
new age quality where flavorful guitar acoustics shimmer in the
glow of a synthesized backdrop, providing a true ethereal quality
broken only during the occasional outbreak of percussion.
Conceptually written and divided into several
arrangements, La Cerra and his gathering of able professionals
flow together in perfect unison, where the finest example of
studio craftsmanship brings a live aura to the many segments
on this "amazing journey" that stimulates faith and
touches the heart all at once. |
