Holopainen said that he was responsible for writing all of the music on "Imaginarium", with the exception of one track, which was penned by vocalist/bassist Marco Hietala.
The new Nightwish album will include an epic 20-minute track which may or may not be split into two sections during the mastering.
Depending on the outcome of this, the CD will consist of 12 or 13 tracks.
Orchestral arrangements are by Pip Williams and Troy Donockley will once again make an appearance on the new album.
Tuomas said...
"Imaginarium" the movie, directed by Stobe Harju, will follow the album's theme and story closely and will also include dialogue."We are using a wide array of ethnic instruments like the Taiko drums and the zurna on 'Imaginarium' The choir parts are yet again delivered by The Metro Voices".
All preliminary screenplay work/storyboards are finished; but no actors or actresses have been chosen yet.
Petri Silas' full interview with Tuomas Holopainen will appear in the March 2011 issue of Soundi magazine, due out in Finland on Wednesday (February 23rd).
NIGHTWISH are to hold a press conference about this project sometime at the end of this month.
