Once again, Tarja is making our end of the year more rock and roll! The singer announced that she will be re-releasing her Christmas album From Spirits and Ghosts (Score for a Dark Christmas) on November 6th.
The release will be a reissue of the 2017 album with new versions of the songs in different languages. From Spirits and Ghosts will also include the live album Christmas Together: Live at Olomouc and Hradec Králové 2019 and features collaborations with colleagues such as Cristina Scabbia, Doro Pesch, Floor Jansen, Hansi Kürsch, Sharon Den Adel and Simone Simons , among others.
Speaking about the album, Tarja commented: “In this album, I explored the other side of Christmas. The Christmas of the lonely and the missing. Christmas for those who find no joy in the twinkling lights and ringing bells.”.
