Being
a huge fangirl of Arjen and of Anneke and being delighted by their live show I
attended a few weeks ago, you can imagine how excited I was about their new
project, Gentle Storm. The diary is a
beautiful spread of forces, with emotion and complexity, wonderful vocals and a
captivating story, as Arjen always manages to create, but as amazing as certain
parts are, there are other moments where the album falls a bit short (sometimes
in surprising areas).
