I've Remembered more:

all tracks of Don Davis & Juno Reactor from the matrix triology soundtracks, are really superb
Fenology - Unfinished Symphony (Arc in The Sky Remix)

Next State / Now We Are Free is far better than that half baked version by Gladiator feat. Izzy (Original Mix). I'll have to check out the Darren Tate mix though, that sounds like it has potential.

I love classical/trance hybrids. They without a doubt make the best tracks.

The two genres definately go well together. Actually, I especially like electronic symphonic music, which imitates a real symphony.
There used to be a decent artist of this variety on mp3.com - Paduc. I'll post a clip if anybody's interested.

That kinda music is awesome!

Anyone knows other songs are as good?

DJLifeAndDeath · **Posted:** Tue May 31, 2005 12:00 pm

Some these are very much classical influenced even if they aren't all based to a classical composition:

Photon Project - Enlightenment
Photon Project - Illumination
Tiësto - Magik Journey
Cape Town - Phoenix Tears
Aria - Dido (Armin van Buuren's Universal Religion Remix) >> Henry Purcell's opera "Dido and Aeneas"
Aria - Willow (DJ Tiësto's Magikal Remake) >> Giuseppe Verdi's "Otello"
Dawnseekers - Gothic Dream
Ace's Delight - Mental Theme (Ultra Trance Mix)
Cygnus X - The Orange Theme >> Henry Purcell's "Music for the Funeral of Queen Mary")

Check out also Jan Vayne's (NOT Wayne) Classical Trancelations series.

Jan Vayne - Lilly (Haak Remix) ---> SO GOOD! Takes a beautiful track and just makes it sound twisted and evil... Great production.

Obviously there is Ferry Corsten's remix Of 'Adagio For Strings' with Perfecto's 'Another Day' close behind...

Someone mentioned 'Widescreen' and the Sensation anthems, these all have that Hollywood blockbuster film score style to them which is very classical influenced or at least very orchestra based anyway.

Also some Hybrid stuff ie. Unfinished Symphony, Higher Than a Skyscaper (a personal favourite).
I'm no Hybrid expert but I love the sound of this stuff.
The original, non-vocal version of Symsonic is better if you're in it for the strings. The vocal version is still good however.

Viceroy · **Posted:** Wed Jun 01, 2005 4:18 am

Alan, here's a couple samples from Paduc.

TRANS · **Posted:** Wed Jun 01, 2005 7:20 am

I think most trance music which have classical influences turn out to be hits. Okidoki

Didn't Armada release a classical-trance CD a while ago?

Mathew · **Posted:** Wed Jun 15, 2005 3:27 pm

Wasnt that Jan Vayne's 'Classical Translations' ??

DJ BASH · **Posted:** Wed Jun 15, 2005 4:17 pm

Rank 1's new release Opus 17.. Isn't that a remake of a classical piece?

It's a brilliant tune

Viceroy · **Posted:** Thu Jun 16, 2005 11:38 pm

I think it came in a 2-CD set as well.

Thornael · **Posted:** Wed Feb 14, 2007 3:27 pm

And what about this one of the most recent hybrid cd, I Choose Noise:

Hybrid - Just for Today,
It's a mix of progressive breaks and electronica with a real live orchestra. It's reminiscent of Finished Symphony, uplifting yet hard–hitting a slow and wonderful piece with a stunning string portion that sends chills up my spine, absolutely astonishing!!!

Thornael · **Posted:** Mon Apr 21, 2008 5:56 pm

This one from 2006 rules:
Phalanx - Symphony in Gminor (Deja Vu Remix)
Anyone knows more recent stuff?

Richard Passarella · **Posted:** Tue Apr 22, 2008 2:01 pm

Everything of Gouryellaaaaa!! Very Happy

Indeed, Gouryella is one of the best projects ever.
