Excalibur – the legendary rock opera is back!
After a thousand years of imprisonment, Merlin – the wizard – finally escapes from Morgana’s spell. Initially intrigued by the beauty of the new world that he returned to, he soon discovers the decay of knightly and sublime virtues, which once had been so bravely defended by King Arthur’s roundtable. An enraged Merlin casts his biggest spell over this world and brings the mighty dragon to life. A epic return of the legendary Celtic rock opera on to German stages, a new chapter in the saga around the sword Excalibur – this is “EXCALIBUR - The Dark Age Of The Dragon”.

That's an impressive line-up.

^ One thing about this press release - I wouldn't even have noticed Alan Simon's name if I hadn't followed the link to his website - I've never heard of him, but this seems to be his project. Shouldn't he be mentioned more prominently?

I was expecting something like Trans-Siberian Orchestra, but the trailer is closer to Alan Parsons Project.
