Voivod + OSM = Symphonic Metal! The Arranger Explains

Interview by Rédaction PAN M 360
Genres and styles : Métal / Symphonic Metal

Additional Information

From the point of view of complexity and demand for virtuosity, metal is the most advanced form of rock expression, whether you like the violence or not. Trained as a trombonist, composer and, in this case, arranger, Hugo Bégin has grasped this perfectly and proceeded to create 12 arrangements for 12 songs by Voivod, undoubtedly the emblematic band of Quebec metal after 42 years of loyal service. That’s why PAN M 360 is looking into the matter! Our esteemed colleague Laurent Bellemare and Alain Brunet asked Hugo Bégin about the ins and outs of these two historic evenings of symphonic metal at Salle Wilfrid-Pelletier, on January 29 and 30.
