During the mid-seventies, the Hamburg-based band Novalis established themselves as leaders in the field of German-language romantic rock. The quartet called itself Novalis after the most important German poet of early romanticism. They created a rock music of poetic, lyrical with german lyrics and instrumental beauty. Their music, a heavy organ rock, was compared to the sounds of bands such King Crimson and Pink Floyd. They released a few albums of lush, keyboard-dominant prog rock during the seventies. The keyboards created majestic layers on which the guitar builds airy melodies. By the time of their fourth studio album, Brandung (1977), Novalis had added new vocalist Fred Muhlbock to the line-up. As well as singing, Muhlbock also played acoustic guitar and added some very welcome flute to the band's sonic palette.

"Sommerabend" is nothing short of great symphonic prog with 3 nice long epic tracks. Novalis blend hypnotic song elements with clean crisp progressive passages…

After the big success of "Flossenengel", the album "Augenblicke" ("Moments") came up with several significant changes. Novalis' drummer Hartwig Biereichel recalls: "The album 'Flossenengel' was a concept album with singular tracks that were yet intertwined in one complete work of art. We were a progressive rock band that used to roll out the long passages of a song consciously. Nonetheless we also had very compressed songs that have been much fun, too. That was the point when we noticed that for us the time of long improvised tracks was over. We simply felt that we wanted to become more catchy - and you can hear that on the album 'Augenblicke': concise coherent songs that were perfect for airplay." Thus the album "Augenblicke" sounds thrilling and alive - even over 40 years after its first release!
