Mozart Meets Metal - 'Queen of the Night' from The Magic Flute
Hello everyone! Happy 40th Anniversary to one of the greatest movies of all time - 'AMADEUS', released September 19th 1984. Follow me here and listen to me here.
I'm sure everyone has their top 10 list of favorite movies, and mine changes from time to time. But one thing remains constant - Amadeus will always be on my top 10 list. I've lost count of how many times I've seen it in the past year, decade, or three decades!
I wanted to celebrate this milestone by doing something unique, so I chose THE aria (or Der Hölle Rache kocht in meinem Herzen) and created a special accompaniment for it. The harmonies and note movements blew me away, and that's why classical music still impresses me.
- I picked this piece because the listener initially focuses on the voice due to its complexity.
- However, the music underneath is just as fantastic, often overlooked as "just backup" but truly incredible.
As a bonus, I've included an extra tune - The Salieri Edit of 'Rock Me Amadeus'. It's a 1 1/2 for 1 treat!
- Der Hölle Rache kocht in meinem Herzen,
- Tod und Verzweiflung
- Tod und Verzweiflung flammet um mich her!
- Fühlt nicht durch dich Sarastro Todesschmerzen...
Hope you enjoy this tribute to Amadeus! #amadeus #mozart #metal
