DESCRIPTION:
This is a track I made for the HUGE Harmony of Heroes project, a fan-arrangement album filled with 101 arrangements of Smash Bros tracks! Check it out and download it here.

Here we have an orchestral Song of Storms arrangement featuring Christopher Woo with his excellent viola performance! There's also Serenade of Water and Saria's Theme featuring slightly in the track as cameos.

For this I used East/West Symphonic Orchestra Silver, Hollywood Brass, Hollywood Strings, Stormdrum 2, Ra and Pianos Gold - basically my whole East/West collection. I also used royalty free sound effects and textures from Omnisphere.

I wanted to emulate a storm over here (if it wasn't obvious). However, rather than just go the obvious route of simply adding sound effects, I felt like the instruments should also reflect the storm. You'll hear wind whistling with the music at the start, a piano rising and falling in chromatic scales to emulate wind, timpani playing alongside thunder, and overall a dynamic listening experience that represents both the calmness and calamity of a storm. I really hope you enjoy it!
