专辑简介
Old School, the new album from New York City's East Village Opera Company is an album 300 years in the making. Using a few centuries worth of opera's greatest hits as their launching point, the album took 12 months and 14 engineers to record and involved 65 involved musicians in 10 different studios around the world. EVOC has once again taken a selection of opera arias and re-imagined them as popular songs, using full symphony orchestra, R&B horns, and choir alongside the group's guitars, drums, keyboards, string quartet, and singers. Arias by Verdi, Puccini, Bach, Mozart, and Wagner collide with Rock and Roll, R&B, 60's and 70's Pop, Surf, and Soul in an explosive mosaic of sound that is deliciously eclectic and singularly cohesive at the same time. As filtered through the group's irreverent sensibility, a seemingly bad idea (rock meets opera) comes off as a triumphant celebration of all music in a musical highwire act that deftly balances tradition and renewal.
