This transitional version of Renaissance, featuring Haslam and Dunford, underwent still more personnel changes while completing two albums, ''Prologue'' and ''Ashes Are Burning''. However, by 1974's ''Turn of the Cards'', the band's best-known, longest-lasting lineup had been assembled: Haslam, Dunford, John Tout on keyboards, Jon Camp on bass, John Tout on keyboards, and Terence Sullivan on drums and percussion. The new Renaissance kept the ClassicalMusic influences of the original, while adding distinctive characteristics such as the five-octave range of Haslam and the orchestral accompaniment, giving, along with the classically-inspired songwriting, a symphonic quality to their music.
