H.E.R.R.'s 4th album was originally inspired by the book "De Vita Caesarum" by Gaius Suetonius Tranquillus from 121 AD, during the reign of the emperor Hadrian. It is one of the greatest sources of much of what we know about the first twelve Caesars after the fall of the Republic. "Although we felt small when looking up to such giants, we took up this book and started on this odyssey that was to end in the first tragi-comic Neoclassical operetta about The Twelve Caesars". Let the light of heart rule in this more "song-based" album. Comes with an elegant 16-page booklet!
