Parcourez les partitions de piano de Nightwish sur Zen Virtual Piano. Released on 2 August 1999 on a maxi single alongside three other songs, Sleeping Sun arrived just ahead of the total solar eclipse of 11 August. The 2005 compilation Highest Hopes: The Best of Nightwish included a newly recorded version of the song, announced that year while the band was busy in the studio. Tarja Turunen sang lead vocals on it, which became her last studio contribution to the band before Anette Olzon replaced her. A song released for an eclipse and sung again years later by a departing singer gives Sleeping Sun two quite different moments in the band's story. Christmas Day 1976 was the day Tuomas Holopainen was born, in Kitee, to Pentti, an entrepreneur, and Kirsti, a former music and English teacher. At seven he began piano classes at school, enrolled by his mother, and later he spent twelve years at a music college on clarinet, tenor saxophone, piano and music theory. Holopainen says that he got the idea of putting together his own project, though he had not yet thought of the name Nightwish, and the concept was already in his head. A boy in piano class and a student of several instruments for twelve years suggest a founder with a broad musical education behind the project, and it is hard to say whether that schooling shaped the band's sound or simply made its ambitions possible. Soon afterwards he asked a friend and schoolmate, Erno Vuorinen, known as Emppu, to play acoustic guitar, and brought in the classical singer Tarja Turunen, who had studied with the same teacher, Plamen Dimov, some years earlier. Heavy metal elements added to the band's experimental music gave Nightwish a different sound that became the core of its style. Once uses a full orchestra on nine of its eleven songs, and this time the band looked outside Finland and chose the London Philharmonic Orchestra. A shared teacher between a founder and a singer, and an album that looked abroad for its orchestra, hint at a band that kept drawing from outside its first circle. After a concert at the Hartwall Arena on 21 October 2005, the four other members announced their decision to continue without Turunen, in a letter Holopainen gave her and then posted on the band's website. At one low point Holopainen seriously considered ending Nightwish; after a show in Russia he sent a text to Tony Kakko of Sonata Arctica, writing that he no longer felt he had a band. Floor Jansen was announced as Olzon's permanent successor on 9 October 2013, the same day Troy Donockley joined as a full-time member, which made Nightwish a sextet for the first time. In 2018 Nightwish was inducted into the Finnish Music Hall of Fame, as the honorary gallery's eleventh member. Doubts about the band's future, then a new line-up and a hall of fame induction, hint at how much its story has turned on its changes in personnel.
