"Wind Rose" is a young progressive metal band which is located in Pisa, Tuscany, Italy.
The project "Wind Rose" began in 2004 with the three founding
members Daniele Visconti, Claudio Falconcini and
Federico Meranda (12, 13 and 14 years old at the time).
They are still attending renowned music schools in their area, in which classical music and
composition are a very important part. In the beginning the band did some performances as a
cover band of various progressive metal bands (mainly Symphony X, Dream Theater and Blind
Guardian) and after changing several names, "Wind Rose" was chosen in 2008. The interest in
combination of classical, epic and metal has convinced "Wind Rose" in start writing their own
material with this style. The three initial components are still inside the current lineup, but
regarding voice and bass, the "Wind Rose" have been involved with many musicians: now the
warm and powerful voice of Francesco Fagiolini and the 6 strings bass of Alessio Consani
have completed the band since September 2009. After 6 months of work and composition,
"Wind Rose" recorded an EP divided in 3 tracks ("Majesty", "Oath to Betray" and "Led By Light")
under care of the artistic producer Cristiano Bertocchi, Vision Divine bass player, who still works
with the band: the recordings of the first full‐length will start in February 2011. The album, out
probably in the summer of 2011, is a concept based on a fantasy story created by Claudio
Falconcini who is writing a book on the style of "The Lord of the Rings": so the album will
consist by symphonic compositions reinforced by a powerful "progressive‐epic‐power‐metal".
Claudio, Daniele, Federico, Francesco and Alessio firmly believe in this: "good music, if
heartily played, can't have borders or prejudices...." The "Wind Rose" would like to thank
Cristiano Bertocchi, bass player of Vision Divine, for its inspired artistic production!
