    Vangelis’ music is often categorized as New Age or Synthesizer, but essentially it’s Classical Cross-over, so this organ improvisation works well. Great mastery of the organ!

    I love Vangelis, and this is truly an outstanding and worthy rendition of his Conquest of Paradise. I love the addition of the bells. Together with those great chords they create a feeling of long gone times when the seas were the centre of the world. I'm Dutch, could write this in Dutch... but putting this to words goes better in English. Someone should use this in a film or something like that.
