Description/Reviews: 

A collaborative project, that incorporates a variety of styles and genres into their compositions, including jazz overtones, classical and theatrical themes, and fusion with hints of metal and Latin. The concept album "Progtagonist" tells the stories of several unusual yet fascinating protagonists, capturing the essence of their drama in musical form. Track one depicts Sisyphus, eternally condemned to roll a boulder up a hill, only to see it tumble down again. Next comes a gentle yet dark portrayal of the character Alyosha from "The Brothers Karamazov." Ramses is a tribute to Ozymandias of "The Watchmen" fame while Gemini seeks to pay homage to all protagonists painted on the canvas that is the nighttime sky - some remembered and some forgotten in time.
