 Comments:

  2CD, over 2 hours of music. Live/studio album, a project that TD had worked on for about five years. "Purgatorio" is the second part of the "La Divina Comedia" Triology by Dante Alighieri (first part "Inferno", third part "Paradiso"). To quote TDI: "A musical piece of epic proportions with a total length of more than 2 hours, once again combining TD's trademark sound with orchestral and choral elements, as well as outstanding vocal performances". First made available at the premiere performance of "Purgatorio" at the Royal Festival Hall in London on Saturday 6th March 2004, then at the TDI shop a week later. Track times taken from the author's CD player.
