A new classical album will come out on 28/01, with ten songs. The title is still unknown.

The info goes like this:

After one year from the release of the classical album "a classical", released on january 2013, it has been decided to release a new classical album!
Packed with lots of LOVE, this is the elegant and cute very early present from ayu for valentine's day.

A mash-up of Hamasaki Ayumi's love songs and classic famous pieces, a sweet, elegant, gorgeous and cute classical mash-up album.
By meeting the musical performance of the members of an orchestra who performs at major classical concerts, the carefully selected classical, famous pieces by Hamasaki Ayumi give off a new charm.
With the ballad single announced for the 24/12, "Zutto.../ Last Minute / Walk", and while building up the expectations for the countdown live which will firmly close 2014, let's anticipate the ayu of 2015!!

CD "Title undecided"
release on 28th January 2015
Price: 3,000 yen (tax excluded)

A total of 10 songs estimated.

Classic Kikaku Album
Compilation album from Ayumi Hamasaki features mashup between her love songs and famous classical music.

[Coelacanth]

So... if I'm understanding the description correctly. It's Ayu songs mashed up with already famous classical pieces by notable composers?

Interesting concept if that's the case.

[tokyoxjapanxfan]

What a cool concept! Looking forward to this :-)

[Aderianu]

mmm
I'm sure now she's sad because "LOVE" and "Love songs" titles are busy

"A VALENTINE"? or maybe "A Classical II"?

[freedreamer]

NICE!!!

[TheRainbow]

Awesome! Praying for Pray or Angel.

[Teppei-chan]

Sound interessting, can't wait to hear more about this release.

[Surreal17]

Wow.
Sounds interesting!

[Eewyi]

I'm excited!

[Delicious n Bold]

Hmmm
I don't know how to feel

[visionfactory]

yaaaaaaaaay!!

A good way to start the year ^_^

[Maxker]

Great news. I was very pleased with the previous Classical album, so have already pre-ordered this.

[Surreal17]

I hope for rerecorded songs from Love Songs/GUILTY/Love again. Put some damn effort into this release. I'm not the type to whine over pvs, songs, covers, fonts etc. - I always enjoy just what ayu has to offer. But for classical albums is different : I can't take a great classical arrangement with the old ayu voice (especially 1998-2002) which doesn't match at all. If she decided to release this album, I hope that she re-records the tracks. And please, not the same tracks from A Classical or the same remixed songs. Has ayu ever heard of Sweet scar, Do It Again, November, Sending Mail, Like a Doll, Marionette, GUILTY? We need to spam her tweeter with the songs we want!

[Gustavopc]

So it's actually a mash-up of ayu songs and classical songs instead of ayu songs rearrenged? Not sure how I feel about this...
