Symphonic Metal

Symphonic Metal is a subgenre of heavy metal music that combines the heavy guitar riffs and drums of traditional metal with the lush, orchestral sounds of classical music. It often features operatic female vocals, choirs, and keyboards, as well as classical instruments such as violins, cellos, and flutes. Symphonic Metal is known for its epic, grandiose sound and its use of complex musical structures. It is often characterized by its use of heavy guitar riffs, double bass drums, and soaring vocal melodies.
