In Paradisum (album)

In Paradisum is the debut and only album by multinational power metal band Symfonia, released on March 25, 2011, in Japan and April 1, 2011, in Europe.

In paradisum (English: "Into paradise") is an antiphon from the traditional Latin liturgy of the Roman Catholic Requiem Mass.

Work on vocals started on the first day of 2011 in a cabin on top of a mountain, where Matos and Tolkki remained isolated with no internet or telephone.

[2] Regarding the music of the album, Matos said:[2] [...] one thing that I always said on interviews [...], was the following: 'Symfonia is not supposed to be a band or a project that was meant to reinvent the style [...].

What we wanted was to get all those famous musicians together who somehow had their highlights in this specific musical field and see what comes out of it.
