.: Recensione :.
Dragons
There has been some great score that has the name dragon in it, and it surely can't be no coincidence? "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", "Dragon Age: Origins", "Dragon: The Bruce Lee Story", "Dragonfly", "Dragonheart", "Green Dragon", "How To Train Your Dragon", and "The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor". I'm sure there has been many more, but I find it very curious. Conclusion: Dragons make for great music!
I really enjoyed the first Dragon Age called Dragon Age: Origins. That one was also by Inon Zur who is perfect for this game series. He makes it sound very epic and subtle at the same time. An example of this is 'Dragon Age 2 - Main Theme' that has a very simple and gentle melody, but also sounds very epic thanks to the use of vocal and horns and heavy percussion. By the way, those heavy horns at the end sounds like it was ripped from Lord of the Rings, in other words not a bad thing.
I feel as though Inon Zur continued where he left of with the original Dragon Age, but at the same time is being careful not to repeat himself too much. The use of choirs is still very present, but he has brought on some heavy horns like in the cue 'Arishok' that just sounds great at a high volume.
Inon Zur also shows that he is great at ballads with 'Love Scene' that makes me and my emotions very happy. It sounds beautiful, with a very interesting string section and beautiful subtle vocals.
The only cue that misses the beat a little is 'Tavern Music' that I feel doesn't quite resemble the style Zur has chosen for the score. It's reminiscent of tavern music, but the instrument choices aren't the best on that one. It sounds quasi-modern and too simple.
There is also two versions of this score. There's the original score that is sold on Amazon and others. Then there's the Signature Edition with 17 extra tracks which I assume you get by buying the signature edition of the game itself. Unfortunately I was not able to get that one, but judging by the work in the 12 track version, it is also a must have.
Conclusion
Inon Zur does it again with Dragon Age II. He satisfies me and everyone who enjoyed the first score with another epic sounding soundtrack. There's no doubt that even if you aren't a gamer but are into fantasy soundtracks, this should be right up your alley. I advise you to get this now and if you can afford it, get the signature edition which is unfortunately very expensive at the moment.
