The Evanescence Synthesis Live DVD is available now! http://smarturl.it/evanescencelive
Synthesis takes a selection of Evanescence’s three previous studio releases along with two new songs, and reimagines them with brand-new recordings. Synthesis is an amalgamation of Lee’s masterful singing and piano playing, supported by her band, a full symphony orchestra performing arrangements by long-time collaborator David Campbell as well as an array of electronic music programming and effects engineered by co-producer Will Hunt--not to be confused with the band's drummer, of the same name--and mixer Damian Taylor (Björk, The Killers, Arcade Fire) who also collaborated with the band on the album.
Synthesis is a combination of organic and synthesized sounds, classical and rock, old and new, reinterpreting the past while giving a glimpse into the future, an old-fashioned concept narrative that takes the listener on a journey from darkness into light, offering Amy Lee’s classic inkling of hope in the midst of despair.
“I tend to dream very big,” says Amy Lee about the project. “The whole idea came from thinking about how cool it would be to do new versions of songs with strings and programming, and it just evolved from there. With the skill and experience we've developed over the years, plus all of the great minds who came to be involved in the project, it snowballed into something very big, very quickly.”"
