Fairytale 2: The orchestral expansion

Music for soul and heart...
forbidden to one who has...
no soul...
nor heart...
and not even an open and rich mind!

Thank you with all my heart!

Whatever the specific purpose of musical composition, there's always an ultimate purpose and the most important of all in my opinion... spicing the life.
Music, to me, has an importance of it's own. Any associations to it, are most of the times merely personal and derive from the pleasure it gives and of course, from the environment, physical and emotional, in which the hearing is made.

All this to say that, this is beautiful music in it's essence and that it fulfils me greatly... that it pleases me simple and independently of whatever initial purpose or finality... because and again to me, the real game is LIFE and "zero-project" has proven so many times by now, to be a magnificent soundtrack... and it keeps being.

Obs: Not meaning to raise it higher than the other tracks, I would nevertheless like to make a special mention to "The past ages of glory", which I find specially idyllic.

Well, it is not a bad recording. It is well orchestrated and quite good from the technical side - the artist uses quality samples or other electronic equipment to successfully imitate orchestral sounds. It is still obvious that these are not real instruments, but your ears would not bleed like with so many similar works. Of course, these songs would be much more enjoyable, if played by an orchestra, but thanks to the artist's skills, the sound is tolerable.

So what's wrong here? The melodies. Yes, yes, I know, they are so beautiful, powerful, full of emotions, drama etc. that... it's really too much. They are totally overblown, just like their pretentious Latin titles - desperately trying to be something more than simple pop neoclassical music. Everybody likes sweet taste, right? But what about a typical wedding cake? They are so sweet and heavy that you have enough after just one bite. This album is a big, colorful, beautiful, dense wedding cake, covered with pink icing. Try eating all five tiers.

Despite the above complaints, I still quite enjoyed this work, but my taste for music is highly eclectic. So if you're a dedicated fan of "real" classical music - beware.

Ostatni utwór przypomniał mi pana Masanori Takahashi (Kitaro) i jego Impressions Of The West Lake?
Nie ważne.
Album wspaniały.
