'Lost Symphony' is a new project initiated by two brothers, producer and composer 'Brian Goodman' and multi-instrumentalist 'Benny Goddman' and it is already the third album that they release in less than two years the first two chapter 'Chapter I' and 'Chapter II' being released in 2020. These 3 opuses are entirely instrumental by mixing the melodic lines of classical music with the power of metal and, for the occasion, the 'Goodman' brothers surrounded themselves with renowned guitarists from the metal world to which must be added the violinist 'Siobhán Cronin'. They have concocted for us in this third part 6 long compositions for 46 minutes of music and we are therefore embarked on a metal-classical saga which merges classical composers with the power of guitar riffs all this accompanied by the violin of 'Siobhán Cronin' which swirls around this debauchery of energy. The song that should delight fans of this improbable mix is 'Decomposing Composers' which takes extracts from classic works to 'metalize' them, but we can also cite other titles with 'Denial of Anger' which, with its melodic lines memorable and with these remarkable guitar solos of the metal convicts of 'Megadeth' joining those of a certain 'Ritchie Blackmore', propose us nearly 10 minutes of happiness. The Goodman brothers also offer us more measured rhythms with the mid-tempo 'Bargaining Depression' which navigates between quiet parts and others more powerful or calmer atmospheres with 'Acceptance' and 'Take Another Piece', both melancholic and in which the electric guitars and the violin bring beautiful moments of emotion.

In summary, 'Lost Sympony' is a remarkable instrumental project for all those who love a music combining the power of metal with the musicality of classical and if you liked the first two chapters there is has a good chance that you will adopt this 'Chapter III' again...
