Free Music Notes for The Christmas Trilogy (3CD/DVD)
Free Music Review: Christmas Classics All Year Long
Hit: 5 Stars
Last year a friend of mine introduced to me this Christmas Trilogy by the Trans-Siberian Orchestra, an orchestra I've never heard about. I love Christmas but usually I'm very tired of Christmas music, especially because there're so many poor covers of Christmas classics. I get tired already in early November, so you can just imagine, how tired I am in Christmas Eve.
Before me and my friend sat down and listened to this compilation album, I, of course, really didn't expect anything at all and was fully prepared to prejudice it to pieces. But it turned out all my preparations were in vain. It didn't take long for me to realise: this is how Christmas classics should sound like: like classic rock ... and yet there was so much else to it than just that. It was classic hard rock combined with a twist of pop, techno, jazz etc. performed by a host of more or less known (but fully talented) musicians, orchestras and sometimes a children choir. Also included are many timeless classics by f.x. Bach ("Jesus Joy of Man's Desiring"), Mozart ("The Magic Whistle"), Pachelbel (two very different but equally great versions of "Canon") and many others. All in all it is an exceptionally good blend of songs from different eras with different instruments and performers, but at the core lies quality music by some classic hard rockers from Savatage that brings new power to classics as well as christmas classic making it one the best christmas-based albums of all time.
What you get is 3CDs + 1DVD with a consert. The music is based upon three christmas stories. You can read about them in the leaflets where especially the last one is touching, reminding the listener of all the good things Christmas is all about. But all good things shouldn't only be reserved for Christmas, it should be reserved for the whole year. That's why I even listen to this trilogy (which I've bought after I visited my friend) at summer time in the Faroes where I come from and where there's daylight virtually all 24 hours a day. It might sound stupid listening to Christmas music in the summer with neverending daylight but in this cause it's really worth it.
Enjoy it.
The Christmas Trilogy (3CD/DVD) Poster
Hard rock producer Paul O'Neill, renowned for his work with Aerosmith and Savatage, teamed with the latter band's Jon Oliva to create Trans-Siberian Orchestra, an inspired fusion of classical music and rock-opera pageantry. Their first two releases are visionary and timeless Christmas-themed concept albums, spotlighting lead guitars and classical string sections alike, and they became instant contemporary holiday classics. 2004's The Lost Christmas Eve, which completes their symphonic rock Yuletide triology, underscores Billboard's recent comment that TSO "seems to be turning into a Christmas tradition."Miscellaneous Music CDs
