5 stars To speak of a so impressive work and titánicas dimensions can that something too difficult is, since this work presents/displays the suite but it releases that I have listened to within means 108 minutes of full music of art, experimentation and to top it all is soundtrack alternative of a film whose history is horrifyingly impressive and revolutionary for its time because it is of year 1927, history is the following one. Year 2026, the machines no longer work for the man, but that is this who subjugates them. A world, the one of the city of Metropolis, where the man is not even the sad happy human of Huxley, but a gray mass of workers without life nor emotion. In part superior of city lives privileged people, chaste of powerful that lives at the cost of all a working society, almost enslaved, inhabitant of subterraneans, that works so that the machines of the privileged people work perfectly, within history son of powerful will know beautiful woman subworld enslaved and with her, it lowers when infier us of Metropolis, where it will discover the social dismemberment whom they have put under those of the chaste one to the rest of inhabitants, once made the discovery, will try to end the slavery of the subworld of Metropolis, although will not count on the difficulty that will suppose appearance of the Rotwang scientist, creator of a revolutionary and dangerous robot. If they think that history is surprising I will say to them that the music is equal of impressive, with many sound and put instruments to point like a powerful machinery of perfection to usanza of Metropolis with their maquinas, this are a recommended work for which they become bored with facility, is not a titánico extreme work, although it is difficult to appreciate by the length of its passages is worth the trouble very well to listen to it, with long time available and an opened mind, clear this that is better to make it with the film and synchronous music, but I believe that there are people who will know to appreciate this work, but I am afraid that it remained in one of the many works nonrecognized by its coarseness and its powerful concept.
