Review by Benny Bottema

Novalis' album Sommerabend is a beautiful and engaging piece of music that showcases the band's talent and creativity. The album features a mix of different styles and influences, including folk, rock, and classical music, creating a unique and mesmerizing sound.

The opening track, "Sommerabend," sets the tone for the album with its dreamy and atmospheric sound. The use of acoustic guitar and violin creates a sense of warmth and comfort, while the vocals are soothing and melodic.

Throughout the album, Novalis explores different themes and emotions, from nostalgia and longing to hope and joy. The instrumental pieces, such as "Impressionen" and "Sinfonia," are particularly impressive, showcasing the band's technical prowess and ability to create intricate and complex compositions.

German Progressive Rock band from Hamburg, formed in late-1971 and active through to the mid-1980's. Novalis took their name from the nom-de-plume of the 18th Century poet Karl Friedrich Von Hardenberg. In their early days, Novalis started with a repertoire of King Crimson and Pink Floyd numbers, and moved-on from there, debuting with "Banished Bridge" a majestic prog-rock album featuring Mellotron and English vocals. After a rethink, and a minor hiatus in activity, and now with production from Achim Reichel's Gorilla Musik, Novalis reinvented themselves with a new patent and influential style all of their own, featuring German vocals, and vast instrumentals featuring guitars, synthesizers and flute. Novalis were quite successful and carried on pioneering and developing their own sound through the early 1980's. Later albums mellowed somewhat with a more mainstream song-based style, but they never lost their unique character. Novalis also reformed at least twice, and quite a few of the band members have released solos or moved on to other projects.
