Two Rare Live Albums by Renaissance to Be Released

Beguiling vocalist Annie Haslam leads her group through nearly the entire fourth album Ashes Are Burning with special guest appearances by Wishbone Ash's Andy Powell and folk singer Al Stewart.

7. Prologue

Renaissance's Academy of Music 1974 will be released on March 31st and is an astonishing live performance of the ensemble at the height of their career. The concert showcases the band's latest release at the time Ashes Are Burning. Unlike other prog-rock groups, Renaissance forwent much of the technology in favor of acoustic instruments and orchestral arrangements. Electric guitars and synthesizers were seldom used, giving the band's music more of a symphonic sound.

Academy of Music 1974 track list:
CD1
1. Can You Understand
2. Black Flame
3. Carpet of the Sun
4. Cold Is Being
5. Things I Don’t Understand
