However, the album stagnates near the middle, as the music evidently takes a back seat to the visually-oriented stage show. Too often, the repetitive themes are played out ad nauseam, many times ending in anticlimactic crescendos. The most successful piece is the epic "Klein Mandelbrot," which conveys a kinetic sense of flux. Moments like this are effective due to their innovation in combining percussion and electronic music with more conventional instruments.

...like to be writing music definitely, but you can't really make much of a living that way. Maybe I'll be teaching somewhere or teaching a youth orchestra somewhere. But the composition I'd like to keep up, but using my other music skills. I guess with not going to a conservatory school, I really missed the intense teaching aspect. Here, music is geared towards scholarship about music rather than actual playing.
