Beyond the Gates - funeral theme

Added 2022-06-01 22:20:23 +0000 UTC

"A dark veil of night swept across the crowd, and the choir sang a dirge to a hero lost. Their voices flowed and echoed off the stone walls of the cathedral, which was lit by countless candles and encrusted with jewels on its towering spires and gilded altar. They sang in a dead language, but the melody caught in the air. The small crowd was silent; the song had left them without words."

Hey folks,

Here's a new track for you, based on a song suggestion from Bard tier supporter SoCalDad. He wanted some death / funeral themes in varying styles, so for this one I made a solemn, sacred piece with only choir, with the long reverb of a Cathedral.

Alternate Version

Just the one alternate version for this track - I didn't want to ruin the simplicity of it by adding too extra stuff, but introducing some strings to accompany the choir worked nicely. Check out the preview for the 'Choir and Strings' version here (I've also attached the preview to this post

Thanks for your support last month! I'm away for a few weeks this month so don't fear if I go quiet for a bit! Though with any luck I'll still have some more tracks to upload before I go.
