Symphonies of War

We were the kings and queens of promise
We were the victims of ourselves
Maybe the children of a lesser God
Between heaven and hell
Heaven and hell

– Kings and Queen, 30 Seconds to Mars –

Music is one of my main sources of inspiration, they represent the atmosphere and characters to me.  The tunes are companions pieces  for certain scenes, or they could just be the music I was listening to when typing a certain part and thus coined to a certain something.

Main Theme I
Seven Devils by Florence & the Machine

Main Theme II
This is War by 30 Seconds to Mars

Main Theme III
Sweet Dreams (Are Made of This) Cover by Emily Browning

Main Theme IV
Kings and Queen by 30 Seconds to Mars

Instrtumental Music

Desiring the World ~ Sakura
Serenata Immortale by Immediate Music represents Sakura’s desire to escape the life that lies ahead of her before it becomes a cage so can’t escape.

Blood and Darkness ~ Sasuke
Dreammaker by Thomas Bergersen represents Sasuke as a proud son of the Uchiha yet the undertone of the music also hints to violet streak he hides under his emotionless facade.

Visions of the Future
Promise by Thomas Bergersen I imagine playing during several scene that contain interactions of Sakura and Sasuke.

Meeting You ~ Dance Scene
Triumph and Loss
by Audiomachine is the music I imagine playing when Sakura and Sasuke meet and the world around them disappears.

Dancing at the Harvest Festival
Cesare and Lucrezia’s Theme
by Trevor Morris is simple and sweet with a subtle exotic touch and portrays Sasuke’s feelings while watching Sakura dance during the harvest festival.

A Dance of Fireworks Blossom
The Borgias Main Titles by Trevor Morris is the music that plays at the harvest festival during the maiden’s dance at which several woman including Sakura, Ino, Tenten, Hinata, Madoka, Moegi and Hanabi dance.

The Dreaming Queen ~ Hanabi
Gardens Of Delight by Vangelis represents Hanabi and her dreams and desire for the future.

How to rule the Fields of Battle 
Firebird Suite (Disney’s Fantasia 2000) by Igor Stravinsky is often a suite that often plays during battles of all kinds. Both in the court as on the plains where the sounds of clashing swords echo.
