Dark Souls III Main Theme (Dark Souls III) - Spring 2023 Concert

Recording provided by Open Range Video and J-Tech Audio Visual. Audio mixed by Antonino d’Urzo. Title: Dark Souls III Main Theme Game: Dark Souls III Composer: Yuka Kitamura, Motoi Sakuraba Arranger: Pranoy Basu Featuring: Karenna Foley (Choir Soprano) The fire fades and the lords go without thrones. The Age of Fire is in danger. The younger Prince Lothric has refused to link the fire, a sacrificial ritual that ensures the continuation of this era. In Dark Souls III, the player character assumes the role of Unkindled Ash, an undead who failed to link the fire in ages past. The player is reawakened by the toll of the bell and tasked with seeking out and defeating the Lords of Cinder, as they too have refused to take their throne and sacrifice themselves to link the fire. The music of Dark Souls is pensive and understated in peaceful areas but dramatic and ferocious during the game’s many challenging boss fights. The game’s main theme, arranged for a full orchestra and featuring a soprano solo, is the first thing the player hears upon starting the game in the main menu screen, setting the tone for the journey ahead. And so it is, that ash seeketh embers. Full program from this concert: Spring 2023 MC This piece was performed at our Spring 2023 Concert in Dekelboum Hall.
