The album opens with the powerful "Julius Caesar Overture," setting the stage for a musical exploration of the play's pivotal moments. Tracks like "Feast of Lupercal" and "Battle of Philippi" showcase Broughton's ability to convey both the opulence and the turmoil of the story, while "Brutus' Soliloquy" and "Ghost of Caesar" delve into the psychological depth of the characters.
The album also includes alternate versions of certain pieces, such as "Praeludium (alternate)" and "Gentle Knave (Chamber Orchestra)," offering a fresh perspective on familiar themes.
