Dark Souls - Gwyn, Lord of Cinder (Viola Cover)
This cover is dedicated to Laura Gomes! Thank you so much for your comments and support! I really hope you enjoy it! ๐
I've seen all those covers where people implement gameplay, so I wanted to try the same thing! I'm not sure if I want to really do this all the time or if I'm doing it "right" haha, but it's worth a try. I wanted to do a monochrome color filter this time because I feel like it fits the mood of this song. Not sure if it works, but I wanted to try something different haha!
Okay, so this one is a pretty simple arrangement. It's just solo viola with piano, but I originally wanted to do a 6 viola arrangement LOL. I tried recording that and it just didn't really seem to work well for me. I ended up just scrapping that idea and just doing viola and piano like how I usually do. ๐ Plus, the original was for the piano. One of these days, I would totally love to do something with my friend that's a pianist, but I'm too scared to ask! Playing with piano is all fun and stuff, but this song, in particular, is just so exposed. When recording, there were so many times were I was pretty scared out of my mind. You might notice it a couple times via hesitancy and just shakiness. I swear... I feel like each time I do one of these I somehow get more and more self-conscious. It's always hard to upload, but I gotta remember that it's always going to be a work in progress!
