“...In the year 1986 I bought my first Serge Blenner album entitled "La Dimension prochaine". I liked it so much, that I have always followed the works of this man. His warm, romantic and classical electronic music touched my heart. However it was often difficult to get his albums, I managed to get my hands on most of his titles. He is one of the few people who can create with synths and samplers warm electronic electronic music. And he is a master in creating classical orchestrations with his synths. His previous album "Ars Oratoria" is a classical masterpiece! As usual the titles of the tracks are given in English, French and German languages. This is probably because he is born in France but lives and works since 1975 works in Germany (Hamburg). He also writes little poems which from time to time are showing up on his albums. Always spoken in his native language French. This together with his Satie like piano playing gives a beautiful and romantic atmosphere. The piano melodies are just amazing. You can float away on them; Serge understands the importance of melody in music. On his latest and seventeenth (!) album "Virtualis" we get an hour of electronic music with beautiful classical orchestrations (electronic!) and amazing melodies [...]. This album consists out of different atmospheres and electronic textures delicately arranged by this remarkable modern composer [...]. I just love those melodic and romantic jewels only Serge Blenner can make [...]. He has made a beautiful romantic album for a much broader audience. He seems to have found the ultimate mix of electronic and classical textures. This composer has a unique style and his arrangements are just ("Magnifique") magnificent. If you are open minded to classical and electronic music (and progressive fans must be!) please listen to Serge Blenner´s music”. © 2003 Douwe Fledderus, www.progvisions.net (UK)
