    The studio version of Sleeping Sun is what is drilled into my heart. It's Tarja's voice, interpreted by her younger and more inexperienced self. it's my Sleeping Sun, forever...That's what I'd say if we go into nuances. This is a masterpiece that deserves to be heard also as interpreted by Anette. It's brilliant.

    I’m glad you finally checked out Tarja! ( FYI, the ‘J’ is pronounced like a ‘Y’). Hers is the voice that hooked me on NW in the first place. I ADORE Floor, but to me some songs will forevermore belong to Tarja. This is one of them.
    Three I can think of (all live) you should check out are Phantom of the Opera from this same End of an Era show; also Bless The Child also from the same show; and Walking in The Air live (it’s from 2000 or 2001).

    The OG. A co founder. Thomas wrote for her voice. His 5th instrument as he said. She can sing non classical. But at that time the goth snark Tolkien Tuomas was in charge. Now NW is more Hans Zimmer and more metal. Tarja (Tar-ya) was orig NW. Floor is current NW. Both do their thing. I was at this concert and I am partial to the Finnish 5. But respect Floor immensely.

    Tarja is classicaly trained. She specialized in Lied singing to be more specific, and graduated at the Sibelius Academy in Finland and Hochschule für Musik Karlsruhe, in Germany. That said, when singing metal she was always and trying to find a softspot between the classical technique and a more contemporary sound, but she never had contemporary singing lessons, she was doing the adjustments herself, experimenting and, especially nowadays (this performance is almost 20 years old), I consider her vocals when singing non-classical stuff to be very 'experimental', her classical background shows, but it's not really classical singing and doesn't really sound very contemporary neither. But still she kept developing her classical singing, she still have a coach and she sounds completely different when she's singing actual classical songs and goes full classical on the vocals in concerts like 2013's Beauty and the Beat or 2018's Noche Escandinava. Beauty and the Beat is probably her best live concert ever, not only vocally outstanding but it also showcase her musicality range, as she sang her own solo songs, some Nightwish, some musical and some opera. It is professinally recorded and is most certainly the best concert to start to know her as an artist.

    You should check her singing actual classical songs, like Vilja Lied and/or Pie Jesu. Gorgeous voice. Also Supremacy from Woodstock 2016, a Muse cover. She is amazing. When singing those classical songs, you`ll here her strong, brighter tone and in Supremacy you here her beautiful chest voice. And she is a classically trained lyrical soprano. Her powerful classical voice was the reason Tuomas changed his plans for musical direction and decided to form Nightwish, a symphonic metal band (to mach her voice) instead of experimental acoustic music he had written himself during his time in the Finnish Army.

    Great reaction. :) I definitely recommend song "Siren" from the same concert. About Tarja's vocal and classical live performances, yeah, she is classically and operatically trained in german university and after that since today she still training her lyrical vocal, but also some more rock vocal she using in her solo career. She has classical album and performing many classical pieces and opera arias, I recommend "O Mio Babbino Caro" or "Mein Herr Marquis" performed by her or some "Ave Maria", for example Paolo Tosti's, or she have her own classical "Ave Maria" composed by her.

      @Marcusrafaelfet Před 3 měsíci

      Mein Herr Marquis is interesting, but some people might be picky with that performance. Tarja does a good job but this piece is written for coloraturas (vocal type), wich are very light, agile and high pitched voices. Tarja is quite the opposite to a coloratura, she is a Lyric Spinto Soprano, tho she can go pretty high, she have a dark, heavy and warmer voice, wich makes it very hard for her to sing a coloratura piece properly. Personaly I love it cause its her voice, but opera people are really meticulous about technique, and tend to be very obnoxious about it. Songs like 'Song to the moon' or 'Vilja Lied' are best suited for her vocal type, she really shines singing these two.

    Marco joined Tarja for some of her shows in Europe and South America. I would so love it if he joined her for US shows.
    Interesting that you made two different comments comparing this video to others (seeing this song by a different singer, and saying the bridge reminds you of Halo). Of course, in both of those cases, this video preceded the other.
    Thank you for the link to Nova's page. The little preview for cover to this song sounds great. So does the "Bring me to Life" cover.

    I am glad you enjoyed Tarr-ee-aa's rendition of Sleeping Sun. This is not the origjnal version that she sang as she was unhappy with how it sounded.
    This version was released on the 5th album Once 2004.
    You are hearing London's (UK) Symphony and Metro Voices London (UK) who recorded work for the album.
    They spent big money on the album.
    Tarja studied Lied singing in Germany which is meant for the stage.
    A mezzo soprano with a 3.5 octave range.
    You can hear her warm round chest voice.Even more developed during her solo career. Though in songs like Supremacy a Muse cover she will remind you that shebis very much a soprano.
    She started singjng at age 4 in church. Joined with fellow co founders Tuomas and Empu in 96. Released Angels fall first in 1997.
    This was recorded October 21, 2005. Helsinki Finland, Hartwell arena on the last night of the world tour for Once. Kittos= Thank you in Finnish. What she said to the crowd.

    Tarja probably was the first girl, Tuomas had a crush on, since she entered his domain to take music lessons from his grandma. Tarja und Tuomas, along with Emppu, were attending the same school and although Tarja was one class down, they all had Music as their elective subject focus and common events. Before founding Nightwish, Tuomas and Emppu already played in different youth bands. Yet, the shy introvert Tuomas intended to play his own compositions and it took all the encouragement of him and Emppu to ask Tarja, whether or not she would join their new project ? 1996 saw the birth of Nightwish, when they started to record a demo tape, forwarding it to different record companies. At their very first concerts, Tuomas, Emppu and Tarja were accompanied by their music teacher on drums and the cantoress from of their local church on keyboards. So obviously, Tuomas needed to be on strings back then. For their first tour through Finnland in 1997, two more young locals, Samppa Hirvonen (bass) and Jukka Nevalainen (drums) joined in, so Tuomas was able to switch to the keyboards. However Samppa Hirvonen had already signed up with the Finnish military, so he wasn't able to continue from a certain point, which, understandably, he later regreted immensely. Consider that he owned some vocal prowess, which he proved on later bands, which Samppa's substitute Sami Vanskä had not. Sami was Nightwish' bassist from 1998 - 2001 until being replaced by Marko Hietala, so Tuomas no longer needed to rely on guest vocalists duetting with Tarja.
    In my opinion Tarja Turunen was Tuomas inspiration for writing all those love related songs, which became pretty rare since Tarja left. Instead Tuomas was turning on topics like Circus, Science or Nature. If you read his love songs closely, you can find plenty of innuendos towards his (unnamed) crush. He was "romatic only on paper" (quote from Devil & Deep Dark Ocean) and wished he "didn't feel for You anymore" (from Dead Boys Poem).
    What was happening? Tuomas seemed to never made it out of Tarja's friends-zone, so when she met her husband in 2000, whom she married in 2003, Tuomas lyrics had been influenced, too. In 2004 he wrote that hymn for unrequited love. While Floor is singing "Ghost Love Score" today, you easily forget that those were Tuomas' lines about a love, that never made it into reality and therefore could'nt be rated. How would it have gone? "We used to swim the same moonlight waters...a siren from the sea came to me, sang my dreams my longings...my fall will be for you...time to never hold our love!!" Just search for "Nightwish - Two for Tragedy" on CZcams to find Dany Ela's footage that hits the nail on the head. Interesting that Tuomas first needed to bury his feelings musically with "The Poet and the Pendulum", before he met just another classical traines singer, Johanna Kourkela, in 2009 and got married to her a couple of years later, with whom he recorded those "accoustic campfire music" that he planned with Nightwish in first instance, but dropped due to Tarja.
    Tarja's husband Marcelo once stated that Tuomas doesn't like him, because he is jealous on him (due to Tarja). Indeed our Latin Lover was extremely jealous, too. Leaving Tarja no more alone with the band, even on tour, cutting their private talkings and moreover, as her "new manager", insisted that a all business releated stuff shall be discussed only with him. He will tell Tarja the relevant topics later. His announcement, that Nightwish' Superstar Tarja Turunen will leave the band after the next album, heading for a solo-career, let the band pull the emergency brake...as the vibe on tour between the band/management and Marcelo had already become unbearable.
    New hope for continueing their story rose, especially since Floor Jansen entered their domain in 2003, when she and her primeval band were playing as a support band on Nightwish' European tour. Should Tuomas really had been deaf regarding Floor's voice? I don't think so. Consider that before Tuomas was replacing their somewhat indifferent bassist Sami Vanskä by Marko Hietala, he learned about Marko on tour, when he was playing bass for their support band, too!! The only problem with that faithful soul Floor Jansen was, that she was still occupied by "After Forever" back then, which then became a friends band. So they were shrinking back, to ask Floor directly. Their idea was, to make a public employment ad. Unfortunately for Tuomas, only Floor's sister Irene Jansen (to meet the rumours that a Ms.Jansen already applied and had been outperformed by an Anette Olzon) sent her application. But since "After Forever" disbanded in 2009, the benevolence towards their second singer Anette Olzon seemed to decrease. When Anette announced her pregnancy, during her second tour with Nightwish and insisted to postpone all forecoming concerts after the Helsinki show in November, there was no holding back for Tuomas. On Sep. 20, 2012, the wedding day of Floor's sister Irene, Tuomas made his direct-phone-call on Floor's mobile, with only one question left. Why on Earth Floor Jansen ? It needed to be a hefty argument, after Anette was being informe, which consequently let to the "Denver Debacle" or shall we say, "Denver Miracle", on Sept. 28th, 2012. The idea to not overtax Floor, offering her enough preparation time, until the Latin America tour leg will start in late November, was bursting like a bubble: "Please learn the setlist in 48 hours" required another phone call...

      @@k.l.7788 First of all this is not a scientific study. Even if interviewing Tuomas you will never be sure what men would reveal about their past, esp. if not being proud of it. But here's something to look up. Tuomas said, he was 13, when he first met Tarja. An age, when boys normally start to look different on girls. Despite of being in the same music class, he was "surprised" that Tarja's strong voice doesn't fit with the atmospheric, accoustic-style of camp-fire music, Nightwish' songs ought to be. But instead of shifting to another singer, Tuomas rather changed his composing style, to better fit with Tarja's voice. Tuomas lyrics were full of innuendos to an unnamed crush only during the Tarja era. It is very likely that he experienced that kind of unrequited love at first, before being able to write such gorgeous songs about it. Not only did it change drastically, after Tarja left Nightwish (2007 Dark Passion Play album was still written/heavily influenced by Tarja's era). Moreover you can also notice a changes in his lyrics, after Tarja met her husband in 2000 and again, after she got married in 2003. Tarja's pick couldn't have been more different to him. Instead of an introvert, shy dreamer, who was "romantic only on paper" Tarja chose an outrovert, show-off, businessman, to whom numbers seemed to be more important, than emotions. Or do you realy believe, that Tuomas wrote his musical suicide "Poet & Pendulum" because of "bad press" or rather because of a broken heart, that needs to be adjusted ? Like burying his feelings to have a new start ? Which also meant, leaving the love song themes behind and going for other topics like circus, science, nature instead ? Not to mention his farewell song to Tarja's husband: "Master Passion Greed". Oh yeah, almost forgot Tuomas' passion for classical trained singers. In 2009 Tuomas met another one, named Johanna Kourkela, whom he married in 2014 or 15? Pure coincidence or just the same pattern? And of course: Tarja noticed those innuendo's to that unknown crush of Tuomas, she needed to sing all over again, which drove her a bit crazy at some times, as she confessed in an interview.

    Funny you say that she has good opera vocal techniques. But when opera singers are reacting to Tarja...its like someone said New York when he meant New Jersey. If you would just have said America or even Missouri, then all would be fine, but once you get close but just not exactly right...people have stuff to say about it. Like Floor Tarja floats from classical techniques into modern techniques and back. The clear distinction is that Tarja's classic is more operatic (loft/dome and vibrato from the start to the end) where Floor has a musical theater style (head voice/mix straight notes with vibrato at the end)

    • @Marcusrafaelfet

      Tarja does have a solid, classical techinque that is perfect for what she is singing, wich is not opera. You can't start talking about conceptions that only aplies to opera when she is not singing opera, and not even trying to sound like one as, in fact, she have said often that she didn't want to sound too classical when singing metal. What people tend to do is take her singing out of context: First that she is not singing opera, and that she is not an opera singer, she studied Lied singing, not opera, wich is similar but not really the same, and she only very casually sings some classical songs and opera, she doesn't do that for a life, it's not the career she choose, so you cannot expect her to sound the same as someone who sings opera for a life. Tarja is a rock/metal singer with a classical background period. Still, she have done great classical concerts like 2018s Noche Escandinava and she sounds amazing for someone who only does that casually.

      You are ignorant and still have to audacity to comment. At least do your research and you would know that it is easier to sing in your chest voice. Head voice often requires more precise control of the vocal mechanism, including the coordination of airflow, muscle engagement, and resonance placement, especially in higher registers. And transitioning smoothly between chest and head voice without noticeable breaks or shifts can be particularly challenging for singers, and Tarja does it effortlessly. You must be new to Nightwish and I bet all my money that you listened to Ghost Love Score first and fell in love with Floor to the point that you are disrespecting Tarja. If it wasn't for Tarja Nightwish would be an acoustic band doing covers and you would've never heard of Floor. Such an ignorant.
