With a stunning live rendition of the epic "Draconian Trilogy", Sweden's Therion — led by mastermind Christofer Johnsson — delve deep into their rich discography, reaching back to the era of their landmark 1998 album Vovin.
The Draconian Trilogy comprises three movements — "The Opening", "Morning Star", and "Black Diamonds" — performed as a single, monumental piece during Therion's sold‑out arena show at Mexico City Arena in 2024, in front of 11,000 fans.
Recorded in collaboration with the Orquesta Sinfónica Nacional de México, Con Orquesta stands as a grand celebration of the Therion universe, once again demonstrating why the band remains the undisputed pioneer of symphonic metal. A must‑have release for devoted fans and collectors alike.
