This is a concert version of the theme for a "someday" RPG project, "The Legend of Forester/有森伝説 (Arimori Densetsu)." This version, conceived in 2015, is a new orchestral mockup, featuring expanded orchestration, choir, and dulcimer.

As I wrote in 2011:

"In the interest of facilitating the adaptability of this project for both Western and Eastern audiences, the theme of our hero, the young Forester/Arimori, is written in a pentatonic row, presented here with a lush, Western orchestration. In composing this theme, I noted the versatility of the melody; in addition to the pastoral and heroic flavours contained in this presentation, Forester's Theme is suitable for adaptation as an Irish jig or piping tune, a waltz, or even a piece in the Chinese jiangnan sizhu style. I hope to one day explore these variations."

Also, as I noted in 2011, this was written in stylistic homage to some of my favourite contemporary composers and orchestrators.

Forester's Theme is scored for full orchestra, with dulcimer and choir.

I am an amateur musician with a particular interest in performing or otherwise producing Renaissance music by electronic means. In my posted tracks, I have used acoustic instruments (recorders), an electronic wind controller (Akai EWI USB), and step-time sequencing, in various combinations. Many of my tracks were produced in the late 1980’s with the Yamaha CX5M music computer, but they were never published in any form until 2011.
