Red Baron - Intro March


Red Baron - Intro March
You can listen to and download my version of the music here:
Red Baron - Intro March

Original Composer: Cayanie Music

Created by Damon Slyle and released in 1990, Red Baron was a WW I flight simulator and extremely ambitious for its time.  More about this game can be read HERE

For this ReOrchestration, I wanted to do something which was a complete about face from the very Zimmerish Police Quest material I've been doing.  The march from Red Baron is some amazingly thematic material and very much deserved an update and reworking.  The main theme is now performed by a large trombone section.. which sounded very german and villainous to me.  Given the actual red barons track record during the war... this very much seemed appropriate.  If you're a fan of Jerry Goldsmith film scores from the 1980s, you're bound to enjoy this one!


For reference, you can listen to a version of this theme as it was originally heard in the game via youtube:
