A significant portion of the album is dedicated to the work "Ecos de Eternidad" by Jan Sandström. This multi-part composition is a testament to the orchestra's ability to tackle complex and lengthy works with precision and emotional depth. The pieces within "Ecos de Eternidad" range from the energetic "Canción de Rock de Cigüeña" to the hauntingly beautiful "Voces de las Murallas Roman."
