"My name is Kvothe. You may have heard of me."

This is my musical interpretation of Kvothe - the protagonist from Patrick Rothfuss' best-selling series 'The Kingkiller Chronicle', with books like 'The Name of the Wind' and 'The Wise Man's Fear'. Without too many spoilers, Kvothe is a talented musician and arcanist with a disturbing past, and an uncertain future, which slowly unfolds through Rothfuss' excellent storytelling. 

I wanted to capture the dualist nature of Kvothe - someone who has experienced a lot of pain and sadness, but has a real passion for living and learning. He's a lutist, so I've tried to pull off some stringed playing in here - to mixed effect. The middle bit starts off with a flurry of small percussion, which I was hoping would capture the atmosphere of Kvothe's frequent tavern performances, which builds into a sort-of duel between the lute and orchestra, and then back into your typical fantasy-themed music. :P

I have to say I struggled getting this one over the line - the mix was a pain, but I'm relieved to get it to this point nonetheless. Rothfuss fans or not, I hope you all enjoy it!

'Life is' is a simple thing, with piano, strings & synth, and is the result of my ruminations on recent events in my life. In many ways it's a microcosm of my life. Repetitive, in a warm, familiar kind of way, with sprinklings of sadness, and joy... always slightly improvised, but never too much drama. ;)

'Time and Space' is an indie classical piece which focusses on a simple piano motif - but heavily relies on the orchestra to drive it forward. It starts off simply enough with piano and effected, mysterious woodwinds, but then drops into a driving backend with brass and strings at 2:05.

A heartfelt reflection of the snowy darkness of Midwinter (at least of what it's like here in Sweden!). Simple layered pianos, percussive and sustained strings, and synths.

'Intervention' has some subtle thriller vibes, with a simpler piano theme which should hopefully work well as underscore. Also included (on my library website) is a ‘no melody’ alternative mix.
