The Elder Scrolls Violin Medley by Marica Vilibic & World Beyond

Good news, our epic The Elder Scrolls project is finally available for streaming and download: https://fanlink.to/TheElderScrollsMedley
Seamlessly transitioning from Morrowind's Nerevar Rising and The Road Most Travelled to Reign of the Septims and Skyrim's Dragonborn, this medley is meant to embody the very spirit of the series calling back to the best moments of each game.
Huge thanks to @silentscreamer for filming the video and being the amazing violinist she is.
The idea to create this cover came from Marica, as she was willing to record the violin on top of an orchestral instrumental track. I liked this idea very much but instead of covering just one song from the TES soundtrack I tried to write a medley that would seamlessly transition between the most notable themes of the series. When the draft was done she played her part in one take as best as she could and I fine-tuned the track around it. At the final stage of production I tried to make the original audio sound more cinematic, using significantly less compression, much more reverberation and a mellow, warmer EQ profile.
