| | Yngwie Malmsteen - Concerto Suite For Electric Guitar And Orchestra DVD (2001)
Plisetskaya Dances film
$12.39
Swedish guitar virtuoso Yngwie Malmsteen has been crafting his pioneering brand of high-speed, technically precise heavy metal since the early 1980s. Given his nearly symphonic style, it seems only natural that the guitarist would venture into the realm of classical music with his 1998 composition CONCERTO SUITE FOR ELECTRIC GUITAR AND ORCHESTRA. This concert film captures Malmsteen shredding his guitar over the accompaniment of the New Japan Philharmonic Orchestra in a live performance of the classical concerto recorded at Tokyo's prestigious Sumida Triphony Hall in 2001.
Filmed in 2001 with the New Japan Philharmonic Orchestra, Malmsteen melds his guitar prowess with some of the finest classical music composed in this concerto written by Yngwie. A bonus interview with Yngwie is also included.
