Untitled

The Lost Opera is an album by the Korean soprano Kimera (Hong Hee Kim or Kim Hong-Hee) and the Operaiders with the London Symphony Orchestra. Consisting of snatches of popular operatic arias and choruses against a disco beat, in the style of Hooked on Classics, it was released in 1984 by the record label Redbus. Whilst not a major UK success, it spent some sixteen weeks in the French charts. It was repackaged in a style more disco than classical in 1985 and reissued with the title "Hits On Opera", and with a more techno-style cover illustration, but gaining little additional interest. Being neither one thing nor the other, however, its audience was bound to be divided and it may be regarded as an experiment belonging to its time.
