Knights and Film Music
February 27, 2009
Today I publish a new music track, inspired by knights, chivalry, code of honour, battles and dangerous wilderness exploration. This is a demonstration of my talent with orchestral arrangements.
Knights and Film Music
The Knight is an elite warrior sworn to uphold the values of courage and honour.
Knighthood was characterized by two elements, feudalism and service as a mounted combatant. Both arose under the reign of the Frankish emperor Charlemagne, from which the knighthood of the Middle Ages can be seen to have had its genesis.
Knights were trained in hunting, fighting, and riding. They were also trained to practise courteous, honorable behaviour, which was extremely important.
This behaviour was a Code of Honour, made of solemn oaths, like to protect the people and to live by honour and for glory.
Danger was part of a Knight’s life, and you can feel dangerous surroundings in this orchestral demo.
Part of the track is from the music soundtrack I’m composing and producing for the Nintendo DS videogame Baalzebul. It is an innovative fantasy role play game. The first playable demo will be completed soon.

That is awesome.
Thanks :)
I checked your Poetry website, well done!
Once a King, always a King, but once a ‘Knight’ is enough! I can actually be there, watching these warriors. Excellent work, a gift, such a lot of ‘aural’ interpretation woven into pleasing melody.
Beautiful Manuel! Thought provoking, the soundtrack of the day for me. Cheers
Sounds great. You have a real talent with orchestra. Are you using the song as the intro to the game? Or more like a battle tune?
Thank you! The final part will be in the game soundtrack. The initial part has been done for demo purposes and it is slightly inspired by an old Paladins Theme I made many years ago and that my hardcore fans know very well.
Do you have a link to the Paladins Theme?
I uploaded the track, you can find it at http://manuelmarino.com/demo/Paladins_Theme.mp3 .
This is a nifty theme for music.
Thank you, Elizabeth! And congratulations for your website, we absolutely need more green blogs, considering the actual hard times of our planet.
Gorgeous. I can see the knight. I can see the gunslinger. I can see the soldier. I can see the cop. This is soul of a warrier music.
Wonderful music!
You have finished a great job!
