On August 2nd LINGUA MORTIS ORCHESTRA will release their new album, concisely entitled “LMO”.
Get your first impression about this opulent orchestral project below.
LINGUA MORTIS ORCHESTRA was formed by the three RAGE musicians Victor Smolski (guitar, keyboard and chello), Peavy Wagner (vocals and bass) and André Hilgers (drums) as a continuation of 1996’s “Lingua Mortis” album – back then a true piece of pioneering work.
The entire album was mostly composed by Victor Smolski who cooperated with two orchestras from Spain and Belarus, enlarging the number of this mammoth project’s participants to more than 100. Together with long-term co-producer Charlie Bauerfeind (BLIND GUARDIAN, HAMMERFALL among others), Victor Smolski produced and mixed the record in “Twilight Hall Studio” Krefeld, Germany. The final mastering is to be done within the next days.
“LMO” follows an exciting concept on the burning of witches in Gelnhausen in 1599, written by vocalist Peavy Wagner and based on a true story.
Apart from the three RAGE musicians, two female vocalists belong to LINGUA MORTIS ORCHESTRA’s regular cast: Jeannette Marchewka and soprano singer Dana Harnge. Guest vocals were contributed by Henning Basse (ex-METALLIUM), among others.
