1 out of 5 stars Do not buy it!.......2007-07-05

Do not buy the CD! It is absolute horrible, just some drums over the lovely opera's songs.Do not come close to the "Trance opera", you will be very disapointed.

1 out of 5 stars Amateur trash.......2007-06-12


The performances by the classical musicians are excellent, but the "trance" tracks added to it are amateurish and completely ridiculous. A high school kid working in his garage with a little bit of talent could do much better.

Avoid "Trance Opera" one and check out these two really good CDs that mix opera and trance/techno to really good effect: 1. Flower Duet by Luminaire on the Glass Note label, and 2. Spente le Stelle by Emma Shapplin on the Radikal Records label.

3 out of 5 stars Disappointed.......2007-06-08

I received my set of CD's today and have only listened to CD1 (I will be listening to the rest). I am disappointed with what I have heard so far, purely because there is almost only one rhythm that persists for each and every lovely piece that has been selected. I love new arrangements but I'm afraid, going by CD1 there is not much imagination or beauty of expression. A singer that had me listening to every note was Charlae Olaker. What a beautiful voice. She sings 'Scene et legende de la fille du paria' - my favourite piece so far. I look forward to hearing more of her. Amazon doesn't allow snippets as yet and I am now beginning to understand why. If you are already a fan of the A-Team I am sure you will love the set, otherwise I recommend you listen to a few cuts before purchasing.

5 out of 5 stars Bombastic Intro to Classical.......2005-11-06

For the novice, this album is a LOUD, bombastic, in your face way to get you hooked into opera. Opening the album is Richard Strauss' Also sprach Zarathustra: Fanfare, which enjoyed enormous fame as the "Theme to 2001 A Space Odyssey". Behold The Sea Itself from "A Sea Symphony" is a spectacular musical account of the ocean in all its majesty. Wagner's Ride of the Valkyries is the most famous work of classical music with fortissimi passages and made famous through the film Apocalypse Now. Mussorgsky's Night on Bald Mountain is an intense, gritty piece describing a harrowing, haunted night on the supposedly spooky mountain in Russia. Tchaikovsky's "Romeo and Juliet" Fantasy Overture includes a thunderous, intense section depicting the feud between the Montagues and the Capulets. Other music on here include the stunning, climatic finale to Puccini's opera Turandot with soprano Eva Marton as Turandot, Mussorgky's Great Gate at Kiev, O Fortuna the chilling hcorus from Orff's Carmina Burana, and Tchaikovsky's 1812 Overture, which is a staple of 4th of July concert programs. All in all, a great album of thunderous classical music that invades your stereo with its powerful sound.
