Rumblin' Orchestra

The Profile

Hungarian group led by keyboardist and composer Béla Ella. Line-up on the reviewed records includes family members (Beatrix Ella on flute, Kitti Ella on cello, Attila Ella on trombone, Daniel Ella on oboe, Miklos Ella on violin) and Jusztin Szabó on drums, percussion, bass and vocals, plus guests and a choir. Two albums reviewed: Spartacus (debut) and The King's New Garment (follow-up).

Reviews cite strong influences from Emerson, Lake & Palmer and After Crying; the music combines progressive rock and classical/symphonic arrangements. The King's New Garment is described as more balanced and original compared to Spartacus.

Two DeBaser reviews (by Jesterhoax1) cover Rumblin' Orchestra's debut Spartacus and its follow-up The King's New Garment. The band is presented as a Hungarian, family-centered ensemble led by keyboardist and composer Béla Ella. Reviews highlight strong classical influences, symphonic arrangements, and clearer, more balanced compositions on the second album. Both reviews compare the group to Emerson, Lake & Palmer and After Crying.
