Moments Worth Waiting For
The nine-minute centerpiece 'The Mirror of the Soul' shifting through multiple movements like a short film
The way the orchestral swell in 'Leningrad' mirrors the cold, grand scale of the city's history
The intimate, close-mic vocal delivery on 'My Father’s Eyes' that feels like a whispered secret
