Also check out the video diary about the recording of a metal version of the legendary classic masterpiece “The Four Seasons” by Antonio Vivaldi.
The international Vivaldi Metal Project was launched at the end of 2013 by keyboardist, composer and producer Mistheria (solo artist who also worked with such top artists as Bruce Dickinson, Rob Rock, Roy Z among others) together with his co-producer, bassist Alberto Rigoni (solo artist, TwinSpirits). It has been a big challenge for the project creators and for all the participants to re-arrange and to perform this classic masterpiece beloved by millions people all over the globe in the vein of metal music power. It took about two years to form a cast of top rock and metal singers and instrumentalists.
The recordings started in June 2015. At the moment, the international team has finished most of the drum parts and started recording bass.
The album release is set for March 2016. It’s already available for pre-order via crowdfunding campaign on PledgeMusic as mp3 or CD with various exclusive options such as autographed CDs, CD special boxes, USB keys, Skype interviews, CME Xkey mobile keyboard + travel badge, online lessons and shows and more!
