"Heavy Metal Chamber Orchestra"

The Story
The "Heavy Metal Chamber Orchestra" CD consists of eight electric and acoustic guitar arrangements of classical violin and piano pieces by Washington guitarist Tom Tseng. The production styles on "Heavy Metal Chamber Orchestra" range from fingerstyle solo guitar on "Fur Elise" and "Jesu, Joy Of Man's Desiring", to Yngwie-style speed metal on Mendelssohn's "Violin Concerto In E Minor." The tone of the piece "Solfeggietto" is particularly well suited for metal guitar performance, arranged here for two guitars, bass and drums.
