In an update on their Facebook page, symphonic power metal masters Dark Moor announced the release of their new album Ars Musica, following the success of their previous Ancestral Romance (2010). You can see the new album's artwork below.

According to the band, "Dark Moor have taken another step forward in their career, forging a more identifiable sound and expanding their songwriting in multiple directions. They still pay homage to the Spanish cultural heritage in songs such as 'First Lance Of Spain', 'Gara & Jonay' and 'El Último Rey', but elsewhere they go more personal, still giving high priority to their trademark melodies and elaborate harmonies. Talented singer Alfred Romero offers his best performance to date, whilst orchestrations are less classical and more grandiose and epic."

Ars Musica was once again produced by Luigi Stefanini (Rhapsody Of Fire, Labyrinth, Vision Divine) and will hit stores on June 18th, 2013.
