This is such a beautiful track, it has something very uplifting and peaceful to it. The Chore and strings fit so well together. I've been trying to write back to your personal message on Soundcloud, but for some reason Soundcloud won't let me send messages since a while. Will write back as soon as it's fixed. Hope you're doing well and very much looking forward to more of your music. Cheerio!

Such a wonderful composition. This is probably the best in the series so far, but each one tells its own story. How You are not composing for film yet is a mystery to me. Only one complainer, I really wish your tracks would go on much longer. Keep the beautiful music coming Cedric.

Brilliant, makes me want to replay Skyrim!

Absolutely beautiful music ... cinematic .... nice

Chanson écrite dans le cadre des ateliers d'écriture de Claude Lemesle. Thème : écrit sur une feuille d'automne.

Ces cris

L’été s’essoufflait
À tomber dans les pommes
Devant ce vent d’automne
Qui glaçait
Oh ! ces cris, ces cris…

Le vent dénudait
Les branches d’un platane
Quand les feuilles se fanent
À regret
Et ces cris, ces cris…

Sur le sol tremblait
L’âme de l’une d’elle
Qui, pourtant encor’ belle
M’appelait
Encore ces cris…

Je m’agenouillai
La posai sur ma paume
Ainsi que sur un trône
Bien douillet
Toujours ces cris…

Ses nervur’s traçaient
Des lign’s de vie diaphanes
Qui, sans appel, condamnent
Un portrait
Mais ces cris, ces cris ?

Lucide, ell’ criait
C’était des cris d’automne
Craquants, qui se dérobent
À jamais
Plus de cris, de cris…

Mais elle laissait
Écrit en filigrane
Dans ma main qui se fane
Son portrait

Song written during Claude Lemesle's writing workshops. Theme: written on an autumn leaf.

These cries

The summer was running out of steam
To fall in the apples
In front of this autumn wind
Which froze
Oh! these cries, these cries...

The wind was stripping
The branches of a plane tree
When the leaves fade
With regret
And these cries, these cries...

On the ground trembled
The soul of one of her
Who, yet still beautiful
Called me
Still those cries...

I knelt down
Put her in my palm
As if on a throne
Nice and cozy
Still those cries...

Her veins traced
Diaphanous lines of life
Which, without appeal, condemn
The portrait
But these cries, these cries?

Lucid, she shouted
They were cries of autumn
Cracking, which are evading
For ever
No more cries, cries...

But she left
Written in watermark
In my fading hand
Her portrait

A Million Skies

Arctic soundscapes with a haunting yet warm voice full of emotions, this is how Inyha paints her inner emotional world where ice & snow covers the warmth of her heart, where walls of silence create distance, where mirrors of ice show her own disguise, while all she longs for is nearness and love.

LYRICS:

It’s winter, it’s winter
The sun is covered in ice
I know that, I know that
I need to see the light
Sometimes I can
Feel so dark
And lost inside

Snowflakes dancing in the dark
But you are just as cold and hard
And I break inside for longing
To be near, to be near
Walls of silence hit me covered in ice
Mirroring my own disguise
And shaking me with fear
Of loosing you my dear

It’s winter, it’s winter
The sun is covered in ice
I know that, I know that
I need to see the light
Sometimes I can
Feel so dark
And lost inside

You can be the warmest sun
And the coldest ice and the strongest wind
Blowing in my eyes
Revealing all I hoped to hide
I don’t want to loose you
No I don’t want to loose you
For some stupid selfish pride
For another useless fight
I break inside

It’s winter, it’s winter
The sun is covered in ice
I know that, I know that
I need to see the light
Sometimes I can
Feel so dark
And lost inside

You are the sunshine and the rain
The snowfall and the hail
The ocean and the stream
Carrying me to my new self
Carrying me to my new self
And you mean so much to me
You mean so much
That sometimes I can’t hide
My pride, my stupid pride
I cannot hide

It’s winter, it’s winter
The sun is covered in ice
I know that, I know that
I need to see the light
Sometimes I can
Feel so dark
And lost inside

Snowflakes dancing in the dark
But you are just as cold and hard
And I break inside for longing
To be near, to be near
Walls of silence hit me covered in ice
Mirroring my own disguise
And shaking me with fear
Of loosing you my dear

It’s winter, it’s winter,
The sun is covered in ice
I know that, I know that
I need to see the light
But some day I know
Spring will come
And the ice will flow.

Snowflakes dancing in the dark

Keep it

Carried by a solo cello and embedded in a string orchestra, "Shy" describes, in a very sensitive way, the inner world of thoughts, built of doubt, confidence, longing and courage to live. Shy but powerful, plaintive yet hopeful.

My third entry into this project. With this one, I wanted to go more towards a calmer and consistent feel, tranquil but majestic. 
I think just sound and mixing-wise, this one is better than Frozen Meadows - the timing and tempo inconsistencies however drive me crazy in this one. 
I deliberately spent much less time in the tempo track, trying to fix all timing issues directly in the MIDI but obviously, that didn't turn out quite so well - a lesson I have hopefully learned by now...

The next piece is hopefully going to be my most consistent of all the music I have created thus far. Don't quite know what it's gonna be, but I wanna stray a bit from my formula and make something unlike the last two.
And maybe I'll get lucky and can say that in the end, it is as Elder Scrolls-y as ever, more timing consistent than all my other works before and has a mix that is something I won't be able to distinguish from a professional piece of music.

Kinda skeptical on that last one, but I'm gonna try my damn hardest anyway :P
But first, I want to turn my attention towards this new horror-apocalypse project I started and the new journey into TSFH-ish epic music. Fingers crossed...

Until then,

Cheerio,
Cedric

Transcendence

Shemesh" is a 30-piece orchestra symphony that serves as a tribute to the great Hanan Ben Ari, incorporating a diverse range of instruments beyond the strings. Alongside Asher Laub's captivating violin performance and the full string section, the arrangement also features the expressive power of brass, winds, and percussion. These additional instrumental elements enrich the composition, adding depth, color, and dynamic contrast to the overall sound.

The symphony beautifully intertwines the memorable melody of Hanan Ben Ari's song "Shemesh" with the orchestral arrangement. The lyrics of the original song convey a profound message of hope, resilience, and the power of the sun as a symbol of renewal and transformation. The arrangement seeks to capture the essence of these lyrics through its cinematic and romantic core, allowing the listener to experience a profound emotional journey.

Throughout the piece, the orchestration skillfully blends the delicate and soaring tones of the strings with the bold and triumphant sounds of the brass section. The winds add a touch of whimsy and lightness, while the percussion provides a rhythmic foundation and adds dynamic energy to the arrangement. Together, these instruments create a rich tapestry of sound, enhancing the emotional impact of the composition and lending it a grandeur befitting a tribute to a revered artist.

In conclusion, "Shemesh" is a breathtaking orchestral production that pays homage to Hanan Ben Ari, skillfully incorporating a variety of instruments to complement the solo violinist and the full string section. The arrangement beautifully captures the essence of Ben Ari's lyrics, delivering a profound and emotional musical experience. From the evocative melodies to the diverse orchestral textures, this symphony stands as a testament to the power of music to honor and celebrate the legacy of an influential artist while invoking a sense of hope, resilience, and transformation in the hearts of its listeners.

I dedicated this song to the loves of my life! Namaste

Vision of You

Vision Of You

An emotional, cinematic #orchestral, #symphonic tone poem about the the tale of Icarus, but from the viewpoint of his father, Daedalus. 
A reflection on the overwhelming, sometimes near euphoric, vertigo of loss.

Daedalus Lament

I am me. Isn't that a surprise? I almost couldn't believe it myself when they first told me, but it is true. The Cyanist, Cyanisto or the Wurzelsepp Of The Ages, it doesn't matter. I am an ocean of fire and demonic rage, ready to be unleashed upon the surface of this very earth. Brace yourself - for I have arisen.

If you want me to make music for you, do let me know.
