Absolutely RARE 1973 original press in creatively designed THICK Gatefold cover... Released in Venezuela South America, this progressive rock effort is filled with expressive complex moves... the KRAUTROCK influence is obvious when noted the groups leader is of German decent....
Although born in Germany in 1947, group leader Vytas Brenner's family moved to Venezuela when he was just a child. His music career would start during a period when the Brenners lived in Barcelona Spain when he formed the Vytas Brenner Quartet with his brother Haakon and local musicians Toti Soler and Jordi Sabatés. With the addition of singer Jeanette in 1966 they became Brenner's Folk, the origin of the more successful Pic-Nic, although Vytas and Haakon had to leave the band when their family returned to Venezuela.
After some years devoted to his music studies and a few collaborations, Vytas started his own band (this one) in 1972, with which he would become of the leading music innovators in Venezuela over the following years.
Released in 1973, "La ofrenda de Vytas" was their first album and presents a truly unique fusion of traditional Venezuelan music, Latin American rhythms and progressive rock. With a setting of guitars, piano, organ, bass, synths and drums augmented by traditional instruments (harp, mid-sized classical guitar, maracas, percussion), the album is constantly inventive and creates a captivating atmosphere through well-crafted compositions and impressive playing. A masterpiece of Venezuelan symphonic progressive-rock music..... the long passages are full of layered instrument interplays....
