Genre/Style: Traditional, sort of, Rock, sort of, a little ELP-ish (definitely)
Creative Vision for the Track: Finishing up this year’s work concentration of recreating other composers’ work. For the last one, I have selected Hubert Parry’s Jerusalem. Usually a traditional, and sometimes an orchestral fav, this composition is a wonderful chordal experience. The melody is extremely catchy as well.
Composition Details (Tempo, Key, Main Chords etc): This clocks in at 54 BPM with a double time feel. Key of D. The initial exposition is dramatic. For chordal view see: Jerusalem by Hubert Parry Chords, Melody, and Music Theory Analysis - Hooktheory.
Main Instruments used: All virtual this time - Arturia, Kontakt, Vital, Decent Sampler Synths and on vocals layered NineZero and Hayden from Dreamtronics. Drums are Apple Drums.
Hope you enjoy and as always, feedback welcomed and appreciated.
Happy New Year!!!
