 To be avoided by metalheads and those who still wake up with the double pedal of “Angel of Death.”

This review evaluates 'Vivaldi: The Meeting,' a classical album featuring Dave Lombardo of Slayer fame. Initially disappointing for metal fans, the album reveals a thoughtful fusion of baroque music with dynamic percussion upon closer listen.
