Comment: And continuing with the English phlegm that we are reviewing these days, today we take one more step and, taking advantage of the fact that in the previous chapter we opened the BSo of musical films, we are going to get some tickets at the box office to enter another show and that Today, it is neither more nor less than the Rock Opera.
To do this, and winking at yesterday, we will start with a musical from the year 1970 that will come in very handy to introduce us to the 70s. best orchestration "Thank you very much, Mister Scrooge" we will listen to his song "A Christmas Carol" situating us at the starting point of the selection chosen in today's song, and how closely it is related to musicals, since they are first cousins. Thus, we will first listen to a part, dedicated to my favorite symphonic rock group The Alan Parsons Project from which we will listen to various songs to, in a second part, continue with rock musicals from the world of cinema such as: "Mouline rouge", and ending with "The Phantom of the Opera" by Andrew Lloyd Webber.
Come on, a whole recital to enjoy, enlivened in a vintage London and with other works that, being a delicacy, you will see that are scattered here and there, shall we start?
So, to give them a chronological order, we are going to start at the beginning almost doing a monologue of the English group The Alan Parsons Project and of which 1976 and its "Historias de imaginación y misterio" we are going to listen to 2 songs: "The cask of amontillado" and "The tel - Tale heart" In order to jump 11 years, until reaching 1987 and, meeting his "Gaudí", listening to his "Sagrada familia" and after this, and after the separation from his singer Eric Woolfson, we will focus on him, who is no longer a member of it, despite the fact that Alan Parsons was its producer, in 1990 he released his "Freudiana" and from which we are going to listen, neither more nor less than 3 beautiful melodies, such as: " Destiny", "Don't let the moment pass" and "There but for the grace of god"
And so, we move on to the world of cinema, in 1995 and by the hand of Jerry Goldsmith we will reach his "Powder", and already in the year 2001 we will skip the millennium, with John Williams and his "Artificial Intelligence" from which we will hear his theme "Song"
But let's continue in the same year, 2001, and at the hands of Craig Armstrong we will enter Paris and the famous "Mouline rouge", a film clearly circumscribed in the world of rock opera, and which won the Golden Globe for Best BSo, with covered songs by musical groups, and from which we will listen, no more and no less, than 5 songs such as: "Come what may I", "Come what may II", "Elephant love", "Your song" and " Closing credits" to lastly and in the same year, enjoy with Robbie Williams and his LP "Swing When You're Winning" the song "I wil talk and Hollywood"
So from 2001 we will jump to, three years later, reaching one of the rock operas par excellence, since in 2004, Andrew Lloyd Webber composed "The Phantom of the Opera" from which we will hear his "Overture" and by the hand of Jackie Evancho, "Dream with me" and "The music of the night" to, in 2014 listen to Raul Gómez and his version of "Your song" ending in 2015 with Zephyr and his "Living dreams"
Total, almost an hour and a half of good music and that, as I promised, has been created as a collage, with all kinds of great groups and great singers, but all of them set on the stage of the Rock Opera. Now, all that remains is for you to discover and enjoy them, for this, you know, I leave you the link to the play-list under its cover.
