I'm in love with this soundtrack and I think I love it more than the Ori and the Blind Forest OST. For the past week and a half, I've basically either been playing the new game or working on the sheet music for this medley. I was gone to the world, consumed by Ori and the Will of the Wisps and I loved every second of it.

I tried my best to keep this medley intact with the story's narrative, so it's all chronological, as it is in the OST. If I could I would transcribe the entire OST but, some cuts had to be made, I don't think a 3-hour medley would work that well lol! I still kept going back to the sheet and adding things even after I thought I was done. I finished the game yesterday and had to immediately add some more music from the ending because, wow, the chills I got there!

One of my biggest weaknesses in playing anything ever is tempo. I realized after recording that some things turned out faster and some slower than intended but, you know what? I went with the flow and I'm keeping it, recording something so long was already incredibly nervewracking for me, trying to play it perfectly in every aspect would make me collapse before I'd get a good take lol

Besides the tracks that I included in the medley, my favorite was probably "Mora the Spider", which was actually the first one I wanted to include. It ended up clashing with the rest though so I took it out. Incredible track! (and incredible fight, that was my favorite part of the game up until the end, which I liked even better) But sounds like it's going to be a challenge for me to play and transcribe so I might try to record it on its own, in its own time~

Random notes:

Shriek and Ori - I'm very sorry to my piano during the last part, I put a fortissimo in the sheet but I think I'll change it to forte fortissimo lol, it just felt right to go all out there!

Camera: phone taped to a lamp, again. The shaking during some parts is, I assume, due to physics and things being played loudly.

This turned out to be a very long description, cheers to those who read this far!

Ori and the Will of the Wisps OST by Gareth Coker, who I cannot thank enough for the wonderful music!

Oh and sheet music in the pinned comment!
