I was expecting something more "Orffish" or "Wagnerian"... :?

IMO they shouldn't use electronic at all and so, be less faithfull to the original songs...

But even so, it seems good... I will buy it.

This sounds like it's going to be really good and I hope that "CONCERTS OF THE SYMPHONIC JARRE PLANNED THROUGHOUT EUROPE" means that they will be coming to the UK.

I've often wanted to hear symphonic versions of Jarre's music played at the BBC proms in the Royal Albert Hall... he is a conductor after all! Who knows? Perhaps that moment isn't too far away!

Hmm... some of it sounds like a bad Starink cover, especially Equinoxe 4. I would have preferred they hadn't used synths. I'll pass on this one.

I really like it,of the samples I've heard,I like Chronologie 3,I always thought that would sound good played by an orchestra,but I'm not sure about Eldorado.
I will definately buy this album,I assume it will be available in places like HMV,but will it be under Jarre,or under classical music I wonder?

I´m not sure I´ll buy this one, in fact I won´t... I think! :wink:

I mean, I don´t think it sounds "big" enough! It sounds a bit flat at times!?

I think it could have been muuuch better!! But I´m not saying it´s bad, not at all!! Just not my taste! :wink:

I would have loooved to hear it like Vangelis did with "Mythodia"!! That´s a biiig fat sound!! Almost wet!! :D :wink:

And also, I´m disappointed with the use of synths! You know, either it´s acoustic or not... Me thinks.. :roll: :wink:

But hey, I´ll problably end up buying it anyway!! :D Someday that is... :wink:
