The main content was filmed and recorded on two show nights this March 2012 in Rosario, Argentina, at the Teatro El Círculo. The video products include plenty of extras -- video and photo material. With the elaborate track listing and its extras, “ACT I“ provides the full-fledged bill of fare to either Tarja fan. The track listing consists of Tarja's greatest solo tracks, Nightwish classics as well as some cover versions, such as Andrew Lloyd Webber's “The Phantom Of The Opera“ and marvellous Gary Moore's “Over The Hills and Far Away“ -- or to make it short: a unique blend of music selection. The set up of these HD filmed concerts meant an incredible extra work and effort in the live production - with an impressive result, but also an emotional rollercoaster-ride. Says Turunen: “those two nights in Rosario were a huge emotional drive to me personally.“ The artist herself admits, she “was many times ready to burst into tears.“ ACT I“, as the title already suggests, is the vanguard in a sequence of live products at a yet to be determined point of time. Fans and media can actively follow Tarja at on the road to release day of “ACT I“. While releasing “ACT I“, Tarja is already working on her next solo studio album. “ACT I“ already features two brand new tracks by the Finnish Soprano: “Into The Sun“ is the lead single for the live album, to be released July 13th 2012 digitally. #tarjaturunen #nightwish #tarja
