Heaven and Hell

Well, at last, the cast is complete.
Is it, really ?
Isn't someone missing ?
Yes, you got it ! 
Where the hell is Michael Kiske ? Is an Avantasia album imaginable without him ?

Certainly not, as long as Tobias Sammet is concerned : "When I write for Avantasia, there is always a time when I hear Michi's voice in my head, singing as no other one can. Without him in the cast, the record would be sort of incomplete."
But there is no part left in the cast, right ? Well, this shouldn't be a problem for Tobi, cocky as ever : "If there is no part for Michi, I'll create one. And it will be the greatest part of the play. After mine, of course."
This is how Michael Kiske found himself playing the not-so-mysterious role of "Hell".
"And as Hell cannot be the same without facing Heaven", adds Tobias Sammet, "it opens a part for yet another performer."

Wow, another one more ? And, wait a minute. Heaven ? Who on Earth could be playing such a part ? The singer would have to be so amazingly talented and so overwhelmingly charismatic, with a voice  so powerful and gentle and incredible and... What ?
Oh, you're right : she exists, her name is Floor Jansen.
