<h1>Waltari Evangelicum / Evankeliumi</h1>
<p>Following "Yeah!Yeah!Die!Die!" from 1996, "Evangelicum" ("Evankeliumi") 1999 is the second Metal Symphony of Kaertsy Hatakka and the finnish band <a href="../../index.htm" target="_blank">Waltari</a>. <br>
<p>But Evangelicum is much more than just a symphony, a kind of musical combining music, modern dance, stage play und furious light show. Producer Pekka Rahkonen: "Evangelicum is a breathtaking story about Good and Evil including all possible metaphores about these issues you can imagine. Happening in the Middle-Ages, telling about our times." <br>

<p>Evangelicum is pure fiction, not based on any kind of historical or any other truth. <br>
