From Spirits And Ghosts Score For A Dark

On the first look, 'From Spirits and Ghosts: Score for a Dark Christmas' might seem like any other Christmas album. However, the listener will soon notice that Tarja takes classical Christmas songs and brings them to a never-before-seen level, using a unique blend of her classically trained voice mixed with her heavy metal influences. This puts a uniquely sinister spin on traditional songs like 'Amazing Grace', 'We Wish You a Merry Christmas' or 'Feliz Navidad', reminding the listener of a movie score. Besides covering classic carols, 'From Spirits and Ghosts' also features one brand new Tarja song - 'Together'. This song is aligned with the dark sound of the album and embodies the theme of ghosts and mysticism throughout, in a brilliant, Tarja-styled manner, utilising the sound of a grand orchestra. The 2020 edition of this festive album adds even more to the perfect dark Christmas spirits. Additional to the previously released studio versions, it also includes a bonus CD packed with electrifying live versions recorded at Olomouc and Hradec Králové in December 2019, including strings and even more classical elements for the ultimate Christmas mood.
