| In 1997, one year after he had been graduated from the famous music school CMCN, Stephan Forté composed his first instrumental demo "Visions", which is considered to be the starting point of the Adagio adventure.This demo, being very clearly Neoclassical-oriented, quickly helped Stephan’s name to be noticed among the guitaristic community and allowed him to sign his first endorsement deals with Godin, Lag and Rocktron. For the first Adagio Album Stephan recruited Dirk Bruinenberg, Franck Hermanny, David Readman, Richard Andersson and Dennis Ward as Producer. "Sanctus Ignis" was released in March 2001. Two years later, in September 2003 the second Album "Underworld" was recorded and received also great success in Japan and Europe. After conflicts between Adagio & David Readman’s management the group were looking for a new voice and made an announcement on the internet. Demos were sent by a lot of singers from all over the world and the group finally chose a Brazilian singer named Gus Monsanto after they heard his splendid interpretation of "Chosen". After more than one year of composition, the new album "Dominate" was finished and pre-released in France and Japan. The new album sounds more powerful and darker than the previous ones. With their neo-classical influences, not to say progressive, Adagio will "dominate" the metal scene. | |
