SOUNDTRACK COMPOSITION

Prince Suite

A small commission for a friend, a group of orchestral tracks to follow a character who siezes their destiny.

3 Tracks, 2017

01 - Prince

The character's main theme, showcasing a hero deposed from the throne who travels on their own. The piece mainly uses piano and violin in Phrygian mode.

02 - Battle

A full orchestra provides background to an epic battle between the hero and an opponent, accompanied by a male choir. The piece combines an ominous feeling with driving rhythm.

03 - The Throne

The final stage of the hero's journey, where they have an epiphany (reprising the motif from the first track) and launch into a chaotic battle with their greatest enemy. Eventually the music enters a fanfare as they win and reclaim their rightful place.
