The Death Knight Takes the Field

This is a submission for "Impressions Composing Jam OST #1" wherein participants are tasked with creating a soundtrack based on the theme of the Death Knight character archetype.

Taking inspiration from Mozart's "Don Giovanni", I wanted "The Death Knight Takes the Field" to have a big, bombastic opening. Then I took inspiration for the slow galloping rhythm from Langrisser 2's "Leon's Theme". I also made sure to include moments of harmonic tension.
