    This sounds amazing! Wish I could make it to the concert. Any plans to release an album of "Paradise Lost"?

  • Jesse

  • Rob Henderson

    Ugh. Why don't I live in Southern California?

  • Emily Fitzgerald

    I was supposed to be a part of this this summer but money would not allow it. But I will be in LA NEXT summer! Can't wait! I hope it'll be just as amazing!

  • Dakota Smith

    I must say. Stunning blend of modern techno and choir music. It sounds absolutely wonderful. And exciting. Can't wait until this comes to Chicago!

  • Drew Powell

    I have to admit that I haven't done much following on Paradise Lost. However, after listening to this, it sounds absolutely invigorating. What I found most interesting is that the climax of this piece is basically the same as the climax of your band arrangement of Lux Aurumque! Awesome job integrating that musical idea into a completely different setting!

  • Martin R

    Now you are just making me mad for teaching in Japan! If it's going to be so awesome, I think you should record it an sell it…really….please!

  • GW

    Maaaaannn…
    Totally not fair.
    Not only willI never get to see this…it looks like there’ll never even be an LP.
