Back in 1996, I was 22 then (sigh), I composed symphonic music to a fairy-tale like adventure story, using a KORG 01W workstation with a built-in 16-track sequencer. Even though it sounded okay, I’ve always dreamed of hearing this composition performed by a real orchestra. This year I took the effort of re-arranging Faendalar for the use of Vienna Symphonic Library samples (which is close enough to a real orchestra). In doing so I tried to stay as close to the original composition as possible in order not to change the overall mood. Even though I’ve evolved since then, I’m still proud of this particular composition and I hope you will enjoy it too.
As of now, you can find all my Faendalar music here.
If you’re interested in hearing the difference between the original and the new version, I uploaded this particular track for comparison:
