powerful secrets

Review Score: (10/10)
It is very interesting to discover the prevalent Carmina Burana thread to this work - despite no mention of this on the sleeve. Obviously a bold and potentially disastrous move - interweaving one's own work through this monumental thread - is pulled off with aplomb by Michael Cretu, aka Enigma. These songs are mysterious, deeply moving and varied. Overall, this guy is still at the bleeding edge of trance/pop/new age mélange and his keen vision justifies the usurping of one of the most amazing pieces of classical music ever heard. He took a risk and made it work.
