Oldfield. Mike - Music of the Spheres (2008)

The 25th album from this artist from England.

Mike Oldfield does the acoustic guitars here.

He got help from a conductor, Karl Jenkins (Soft Machine), a full symphony orchestra, a choir, a piano player and a soprano opera vocalist.

I have massive respect for Mike Oldfield and appreciate his free spirit. His albums has been a lot hit and miss. Mostly misses and I have reviewed them all and will complete this task later this fall.

The music is fully orchestral neo-classical music. 

A lot of choral choir and opera vocals. That backed by this symphony orchestra.

Some of this is quite ok and nice to my ears. 

I am by no means won over by this album. It is still a decent enough album and well worth checking out.
