This is my submission to Hans Zimmer's Bleeding Fingers competition. It includes the solo voice stem file as well as clips from the string stem file. I decided to compose the first half of the piece with a Middle Eastern feeling to it which mimics the solo voice part in the second half. After the pause between the two sections, the second part is meant to open up and act as a sweeping relief from the tension in the opening section. Wanting nothing more than to one day become a film composer, my goal was to make this piece sound as cinematic as possible. Best of luck to everyone else participating in this competition! :)

Promised Land

I already posted this piece I composed a while ago but since having made a few adjustments and additions, I thought I would re post a more updated version! :)
