MUSIC inspired by Skyrim: "Dragonborn" Symphony Kick

Post » Sat Oct 03, 2015 2:30 pm

Dear friends,

I am so proud and happy to have prepared a musical experience that I would love to share with you!

During the past 10 months, I have been writing a fantasy symphony, combining the traditional musical language and techniques with fantasy elements, themes, and sounds. The inspiration for this work came from Skyrim, our favorite game :smile: I was inspired by this world with incredible gaming aesthetics and profound mythology. The power and missions of the main character, Dragonborn, became my inspiration for Symphony No.1 in D minor "Dragonborn". The symphony is in 4 movements, each featuring different atmosphere and characters, that are united through motives, rhythms, and themes to create a symphonic portrait of Dragonborn and the external and internal realities of being immersed in the world of fantasy.

I started a Kickstarter project to record, produce, and release the symphony in December - as a CD and digital download featuring live and synthetic instruments. This is the first composition of such complexity and scale I have ever written, and your support means the world to me. Please visit the project on Kickstarter, it's called
Fantasy Symphony No.1, "Dragonborn" - Album Release to learn more, and THANK YOU so much for your enthusiasm, help, advice, and inspiration!
