2012 release from one of the most innovating virtuosos' of the new generation. With influences ranging from Bartok to Meshuggah, his musical landscape could be described as such: modern virtuosity meets deep sensibility, both evolving within darkest musical corners. In 1997, one year after he had graduated from the famous music school CMCN, Forte composed his first instrumental demo quot;Visionsquot;, 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 guitar community and allowed him to sign his first endorsement deals with Godin (guitars) and Rocktron (effects).
