NEW MUSIC RELEASES

Ever since the CDs "New Age Opera" and "Ave Maria" were released, ORIGEN has become one of the most respected and beloved artists of the New Age/Classical/Electronic Crossover genre.

For those who love and value beautiful singing Origen presents new rendition for two voices of Handel's aria from the opera Rinaldo, which became very popular after the the movie "Farinelli Il Castrato".

Abstract: The times of the First Crusade in and around the city of Jerusalem. Rinaldo and Almirena are celebrating their love. They are interrupted as Armida appears, and wrests Almirena from Rinaldo's embrace. Rinaldo draws his sword to defend his lover, but a black cloud descends to envelop Armida and Almirena, and they are borne away. Rinaldo mourns the loss of his loved one. In Armida's castle, Almirena mourns her captivity:
Let me weep over my cruel fate
And that I long for freedom!
And that I long, and that I long for freedom!
Let me weep over my cruel fate
And that I long for freedom!

ORIGEN has created their sixth album and work of art entitled:"Solveig's Song." Origen founder, Alexsey Zakharenko, has dedicated four years of intensely creative time to produce a masterpiece that combines, not only reinterpretations of classical music, but also his own original compositions.
In this new album, Zakharenko's arrangements and performances are beyond compare. His trademark mixture of combining the classical with the electronic is even more refined.
Award winning opera singer Tanya Lubimenko soars in and out of the music like a rare, mystical being. Surely her voice is otherworldly. She brings new light to the classical masterpieces of Grieg, Bach, Beethovan and Pachelbel. And Zakharenko, like a magician, has certainly worked his magic here and used his musical wand to renew and reinvent these classic pieces especially for her. She's worth it.
