Jen and Hansi

Hansi and Rage are long date friends, they works together in 2002 for the first time on the Rage's album Unity. In 2007, they meet again on the Nuclear Blast Allstars compilation and this year, Hansi was with the band on their Wacken Open Air show's for celebrating their twenty-fifth anniversary.

Here they are together again in the Twilight Hall Studios (the recording studio of Blind Guardian) to work on Strings To A Web, the upcoming Rage's album. Hansi will appear on Empty Hollow, the main work of the album which which is an orchestral song of almost twenty minutes divided into five parts. Jen Majura, another old friend of Rage (and Blind Guardian because she made backing vocals on Sacred) will play also on this song, but she'll play didgeridoo !

All these great people together should give something quite exceptional and it will surely be very interesting to check it out that this new album will be available (certainly not before 2010).
