It's amazing what kind of jewels one can dig up when they put their mind to searching just a little bit.
This is not from the recent Comiket, but an older event (Kouromu 6), and I believe this is the first album by the circle, cant be sure though. Here's the website if you want to do some research or stuff like that.

It seems like the arranger "中島 岬" has already worked with Liz Triangle in the past so without doubt there is a certain amount of skill involved. On a side note I totally recommend the whole album for those who like vocals.

Talking about vocals, I can't say I'm a huge fan myself, I myself do prefer some good ol' instrumentals with instrumental virtuosity in play, but I don't discard vocals as horrible. I mean, it takes skill (and talent of course) to be able to sing decently, so one cannot just discard them. But when used well vocals can be a songs' best friend (lily-an), since they can convey a lot of emotions, and like, for example, in this song when paired with good instruments can really be a lethal weapon.

As I have been saying this song is totally gorgeous in so many senses, for example the good piano and vocal coordination, the well timed heart-ripping violin solo.
I could go on for ages, but hey, you should just experience the stuff yourself.

I seriously consider History of the Moon to be one of ZUN's greatest masterpieces, and tbh I consider the Imperishable Night OST to be ZUN's shining work. If someone asked you what Touhou music is, I'd show them the IN OST as a guide-point and from there of course, let theme expand their horizons.

Btw the upload title is so not supposed to be a pun on my upload speed...

Anyways, thank you as always for watching!
