Vivaldi Metal Project reported the following: ‘Ladies and gentlemen, friends and fans, with great honor and pleasure we introduce to you the Orchestra of the project!’
The Sinfonietta Consonus – Symphonic Orchestra is one of the most talented, dynamic and creative new ensembles nowadays with a strong and distinct Prog/Metal beating heart!
Sinfonietta Consonus Orchestra was founded by Michał Mierzejewski in the year 2008. The orchestra is widely known in the circles of rock/progressive metal music from the project created by its founder: Symphonic Theater of Dreams – a symphonic tribute to the progressive scene icon, the band Dream Theater. The “Symphonic Theater of Dreams” album, issued on a CD on the 8th of March 2013, has been appreciated by music critics all around the world as well as the band. This very difficult project became a great prelude to the orchestra’s career. It is also supported by Dream Theater.
It consists mainly of the talented students of music schools and Academies of Music (mainly from Gdańsk). Despite their young age, Sinfonietta Consonus, the orchestra and the project Symphonic Theater of Dreams undergo a very dynamic development and cooperate with many great musicians. In the year 2013 the musicians of SC recorded an album with Jordan Rudess (Dream Theater) – “Explorations For Keyboard And Orchestra”. It is one of the most difficult projects for an orchestra which has ever been created. This project set the bar very high and we believe that it will soon become another perfect showcase of the abilities of the musicians from our orchestra. This record is one of the greatest achievements of Sinfonietta Consonus.
The orchestra also performs classical music as well as contemporary and film music.

The international Vivaldi Metal Project was launched at the end of 2013 by keyboardist, composer and producer Mistheria (solo artist who also worked with such top artists as Bruce Dickinson, Rob Rock, Roy Z among others) together with his co-producer, bassist Alberto Rigoni (solo artist, TwinSpirits).
It has been a big challenge for the project creators and for all the participants to re-arrange and to perform the classic Vivaldi’s masterpiece “The Four Seasons” beloved by millions people all over the globe in the vein of metal music power. It took about 1.5 years to form a cast of top rock and metal singers and instrumentalists. And finally recordings have recently started after a full year of working on arrangements by a strong international arrangers’ team from several countries.
