A Story of Songs (Acts 1-3)
About a year ago, I got the idea to write a bunch of music with the concept of creating an imaginary video game soundtrack that would accompany an archetypal hero's journey. I created a 19 minute suite out of ideas for songs and motifs for various symbols, and had to stop because of how laggy it was getting in musescore, so I decided to create a three act structure of music to cover every idea that I had. All of this music was composed in musescore and is just the musescore soundfont, there is no IRL playing or performing. Sorry for compression btw lol.
