This album, set for release on March 7, 2025, under AAM Records, is a testament to Weldon's musical prowess and his ability to weave a compelling narrative through sound.
Spanning a duration of 1 hour and 15 minutes, the album is a rich tapestry of symphonies, choruses, and arias that paint a vivid picture of the mythological tale. Each of the 41 tracks is a distinct brushstroke, contributing to the overall masterpiece. From the opening "Sonata" to the closing "Chorus. Hither all ye Graces," Weldon guides you through the story with a deft hand, using the full spectrum of orchestral colors to evoke the drama, passion, and intrigue of the myth.
The album is a journey through the perspectives of various characters, including Paris, Mercury, Juno, Pallas, and Venus, each bringing their unique voice to the narrative. Weldon's compositional skill shines through in the way he differentiates these characters, using distinct musical motifs and harmonies to represent each one.
"The Judgment of Paris" is not just a retelling of a classic myth, but a celebration of the power of music to tell stories. It's a work that demands to be experienced, not just heard. So, prepare to be transported to the heights of Mount Olympus and the depths of mortal dilemmas, all through the magical medium of music.
