Less than what I expected

"As a long-time fan of neo-classical metal, I had high expectation for this disc. Unlike his other material, which tends to be rock/metal with overtones of classical themes and phrasing, CSfEGaO is classical music with an electric guitar added to the mix.
Strangely, I though the guitar was relatively buried among the rest of the instruments. Clearly, this is a departure from his usual guitar-centered shredding. The compositions, as classical music goes, are average at best. I found that the guitar didn't really add that much. I've heard Malmsteen do better.
Not recommended.
