She recorded the whole album in a church because she wanted the sound. If I'm not mistaken she mentioned there is just a minor post recording so basically it's almost like a 'live' album. And they had like only few days to record all the Ave Maria versions since they can't book the church for so long. The images being projected on her dress coat is the interior of the said church.
It was Lakeuden Risti Church in Seinäjoki, Finland. The original idea - at least mentioned in Tarja's earlier interviews, not later ones - came from a succesfull organist, Kiviniemi.
A lovely, lovely performance! Thank you for this reaction! Paolo Tosti's Ave Maria is not so often heard, so basicly this is like a cultural achievement :)
FYI Tarja has an album that is just Ave Maria songs. I also like the one from 2013. I like her O Holy Night and O Mio Bambino Caro, Walking in the air.
this gives so good christmas feelings. i dont know there is somuch different ave marias,grazy. tarja sounds so good,like always :) have great christmas wolf hunters and awesome weekend.
Tarja is a opera soprano solo. She is a leading lady for whole operas. She was doing operas in her Nightwish days. It was a part of the problem as she had other engagements and the rest of the band did not really appreciate it. Basically Nightwish had to work around Tarjas schedule and she couldn't be there for all the typical band stuff like practices etc. I don't know who took and how much offense towards this, but it was one of the reasons why 2005 happened...
She mentioned in her lives and several interviews that she is a classical singer and that she could never do opera as professional but in my opinion I think she strikes me as an opera and classical singer. Those are the hardest singing styles ever. And I think Tarja is capable of it. My god she is just amazing
@@FluffyLaDooDoo she has done Opera. She did that while she was with Nightwish. She did so in Finland and in Europe if I'm not mistaken. She had her calendar full and that was one of the sticking points. And Tuomas was trying to accommodate both sides. Scheduling Nightwish as much as he could when she was available. And this is reflected in The Poet when he is singing along with the song although he is not micd up towards the end. There were a lot of issues, none of them on their own were big enough to lead to the firing of Tarja on their own, but there was something on multiple fronts and he could not stop the bleeding!
@@FluffyLaDooDoo it might be that she has not done like Opera Opera, but classical pieces as the main vocalist. I'm not a huge opera fanboy, I couldn't tell what is a real opera or not.
@@timometsanoja9666 I do understand that opera can be very hard at times. Considering she does have a dark voice which is absolutely unique in classical singers like her. The fact that she does go to venues and sing some opera is impressive. Although like she once said her voice has some limits and she knows her limits and that she is never gonna stop learning and practicing singing cause the day she knows everything about singing she is a one big liar 😂😂 her words not mine she is very funny though and I think she’s highly capable at it but what she does now is perfect for me. I love her
Yes she sang in Savonlinna Opera Festivals in three different times, Wikipedia says Wagner, Verdi and Puccini. But I don't think she was actually playing in a play, might have been singing in a play... there is a short clip in TH-cam. But what she has studied and performed, is quite same arias they sing in opera plays: she didn't study to become an opera singer but she studied to sing opera. In an interview in Brazil she said she would love to play in an actual opera play, but I don't think she has time for it. You should study acting too, to be in an opera play, and actually you should study opera, because it's not even the same as acyting in a theatre. So, normally, you wouldn't just go in an opera if you can sing opera arias. You should also study playing in opera.
Just beautiful 😢!! It doesn't make man a puss if he drops a few tears? Does it (I don't even care at this point LOL)? In my opinion Tarja has made the most impressive stuff with classic opera music. For example this video "TARJA__O MIO BABBINO CARO (Puccini) - Beauty & the Beat - Tarja Turunen & Mike Terrana" I was watching that video mouth open like retarded! It was so hypnotizing and amazing! You have to check out that video!! Trust me it'll be worth it!
Also I have to say I have seen Tarja playing drums only once in my life time 🤣 - > "Fly me to the Moon - Mike Terrana on vocal & Tarja Turunen on drums"
All hale the REAL TRUE Queen of Nightwish!!!!!!!, the very beautiful looking and very unique voice of the enchanting TARJA!!!!!!!!😀👍👍👍👍👍

Amazing voice, so pure and classic 😍
Thanks for the good Tarja-reaction. One variation of Ave Maria on Tarja's Ave Maria album is Tarja's own composition.
Thanks for reaction. This was perfect for Christmas time. She is amazing.
Simply amazing. This song brings chills all over, such a beautiful voice.
A lovely, lovely performance! Thank you for this reaction! Paolo Tosti's Ave Maria is not so often heard, so basicly this is like a cultural achievement :)
Really beautiful
THANK YOU SO MUCH !!!!!
My favorite Ave Marie of all time, by far ☮☮💘💘
Yeah!!! We want more from Tarja!!!
Kiitos.
I wish the Wolf hunterz a Merry Christmas!

There's a Ava Maria Marko and Tarja Raskasta Joulua that is very emotional. If you don't cry when they hug you have no soul.
Tarja Turunen é magnifica super Diva.
