It all started...
when guitarist Song invited violinist Diana to be a guest performer for his concert at the end of 2021. The two musicians, who share a deep love for both metal and classical music, felt an immediate connection. After a couple more concerts, they formed the band AURA SYMPHONIC to play the music they had both dreamt about their whole lives.
This is what the band says: "Meeting one another was a turning point in our careers and lives. With a shared passion for music and a powerful vision for the future, it felt only natural to decide to stay together as a band. Like a phoenix rising from the ashes, AURA SYMPHONIC emerges from the haze of lost hopes, unfulfilled dreams, and broken promises to find new hope for the future.
Part 1 New Hope is our new beginning, the first step towards a better and brighter future."
