VANGELIS
"MYTHODEA"
Sony Classical
This album gathers the music composed by the author for the NASA mission 2001 Mars Odyssey. This is one of the most Classical albums lately released by Vangelis. The 11 pieces constituting this compact disc are more orchestra-oriented rather than electronic. Vangelis, who in this album plays the electronic keyboards, is accompanied by Kathleen Battle and Jessye Norman (sopranos), the London Metropolitan Orchestra, and the National Opera of Greece Choir. With the strength of a painter from the Renaissance, in this album, Vangelis embarks into an epic voyage to the Red Planet. The majestic melodies appear to grow little by little, in a continuous crescendo that reaches incredible heights. Although "Mythodea" is not a dark work, there is no lack of mysterious atmospheres and passages, where one can, for instance, feel as if we were travelling towards the unknown, far from any common region of the universe. In summary, a wonderful classical work by The Wizard of Keyboards.
