The Composer Chronicles

  • Summary

  • Welcome to The Library! These great halls are filled with the stories of our world's great musical minds, from the masters across ancient civilizations to the champions of our digital age. In this library, Menken, Powell, Zimmer, and Williams share shelves with Mozart, Beethoven, Tchaikovsky, and Wagner, and the tales of composers not as widely known are told with the same enthusiasm as their famous colleagues. Our Curator, Stephen Trygar, invites you to explore this wonderous library with him one masterpiece at a time.

  • Game Play (Disk 4): Celeste (w/ Brian Edwards)
    Mar 2 2022

    When Stephen invited Brian for another episode of Game Play, he didn't expect to be faced with one of the most difficult, heart-wrenching, and beautiful games he has ever played. Lena Raine's music in Celeste is not only some of the best to listen to on its own, but it expertly aids in the game play.
