Austin Wintory - The Banner Saga 3 (2018)

It's difficult to know what to say about this game or franchise after spending the last 6 years basking in it. To call it one of the best experiences of my life is certainly accurate, but it's more than that. Few projects have ever catapulted my personal growth as an artist more than these have, and the 3rd title probably the most of all.

I feel intensely grateful to Stoic for so openly inviting all my musical instincts on these games, and letting me wander off into the forest with some truly harebrained ideas. Rarely could I imagine more trusting collaborators.

Similarly, these scores would never be what they are without the army of amazing musicians. From the orchestra in London to the various soloists around the world, I can't possibly overstate my gratitude. In particular, my trio of Youtube stars who've ridden the wave from day 1: Taylor Davis, Malukah and Peter Hollens.

I hope you enjoy this final installment, and find delicious the dread and darkness I had the privilege of conjuring up.
