MAGNUS KARLSSON of HEART HEALER Discusses “The Metal Opera” Debut Album: “I Wanted to Work More with Female Singers, and This Was a Great Opportunity To Do It.”

The unstoppable creative force known as Magnus Karlsson is back with a new project that stands out from the previous work he has done before. This time, his impressive mastery focuses on creating a symphonic metal opera under the Heart Healer moniker, which is set to release its debut album titled “The Metal Opera by Magnus Karlsson” on March 12, 2021.

Hear Healer’s debut album is the result of Magnus’s growing interest in orchestral music. Through “The Metal Opera by Magnus Karlsson”, the Swedish mastermind accomplishes an exquisite blend of epic orchestration with metal, enriched by the graceful voices of seven splendid female vocalists.
