Bless you. Know you're loved and appreciated for making masterpieces of music.

[@62restroom79]

Not on soundcloud?

[@frostfang7906]

I want this to unironically be played at my funeral as I'm being laid to rest.

[@dukethecrusader7815]

if rasputin (the warmind) had a funeral, this should be played there

[@Lio_Harter]

Imagine if this played when Cayde gave up his fate.

[@exotitan6151]

@@Lio_Harterbro I might’ve cried if it did

[@clovis2763]

After final shape, I think this is the perfect piece of music to fill in an epilogue

[@TonyElTigre42]

You're not joking. I must've sat on the HELM looking out at the Traveler for a good 30 minutes with that ambient mix they had playing

[@shrummajor114]

I’ve gotta see if I can get my university’s brass choir to do this. This is just incredible.

[@jamesthistleton]

I'll see about making some sheet music. My old uni might want to as well.

[@DrogMalafa]

I would also be in support of this - a printed arrangement would be awesome

[@Schn0zicl3]

sounds like a space landing, very harmonizing

[@arcfrizz3205]

This is criminally underrated, this deserves so much more attention than it is getting, true talent

[@RodMunchPHD]

You nailed the idea of this being the "Sunset over Europa". I love how you kept the original somber & melancholic touches of Deep Stone Lullaby, but rather than mimicking the contrasted piano with the strings, you opted for the more rounded sound that of the full brass group in unison with the piano part still fitting within the ensemble until the climax hits. That round sound makes all the difference & this is a beautiful translation of Deep Stone Lullaby. Keep up the great work man, all of your work has been incredible!

[@jamesthistleton]

Thanks for taking such interest. Brass often does the heavy lifting with big soundtracks, so I wanted to showcase how it can start small and grow.

[@Tsungeru]

This would be a banger ballad for a dci show

[@Eric-ly9uk]

You know, not much can bring me to tears these days. I see all manner of horrid things in my line of work, and I know it's not even the worst. And I think it's changed me to the point that not much can move me on an emotional level. But this. This brings back a little bit of humanity in me. As a brass player, as a Destiny player, as just another person in front of a screen, this is amazing.

[@jamesthistleton]

Glad to hear you connected with this. We all need a moment sometimes to reflect that we are human and to feel emotions and connect in some way with others gives us strength.

[@ernestkhvostov2668]

This is if deep stone crypt was set on Earth or Moon and not Europa. It has a more "down to Earth" (very much intended) like the songs that play when you finish one of the campaigns.

[@jamesthistleton]

Yes, down to earth, I like that description. I think its part due to the natural instruments and no electronics.

[@samuelkjellgard3024]

This hits a spot in my heart that i barely knew existed after finishing the final shape. Triumph, closure, loss and grief for all these years.

[@soren1428]

You could totally work for bungie (if you wanted to). Thanks for sharing your work with us.

[@jamesthistleton]

Ah thanks!

[@Linkaddict1]

You’re criminally underrated. I hope bungie finds you man this is god tier music. I’m so glad the creation of music is something that will never die. This is a beautiful rendition of this song I’m speechless

[@jamesthistleton]

You're very kind, thank you!😊

[@Linkaddict1]

@@jamesthistleton you’re welcome!

[@ThatchersResolute]

I remember seeing someones comment being "Sunset over Europa" but for me it's the opposite. I think this song perfectly encapsulates "Sunrise". Think about it like this. You're sitting down somewhere preferably at the top of a roof where nothing obstructs your vision of your surroundings. At the start of the song the sky is somewhat a bit bright by then, faintly illuminated by the distant stars and perhaps foreshadowing the arrival of something. Slowly getting brighter, around the 1:56 mark the first signs of the sun appearing, seeing that orange hue slowly rising out of the horizon. Then at 2:27 thats when the first sunray hits you. That beam of light shining everything around you. As the music sounds ever more grandiose and heroic you stare at the sun as it slowly rises up from the horizon.

[@viniciusmarciel153]

And here's another masterpiece. After all: it's the age of triumph.

[@derwunderwaffe8168]

Dude hearing those trombones sing is making me reminisce and im crying tears of joy to how beautiful this is

[@albertosacco2565]

I want this to play at the last stand of my Guardian in front of the Darkness with nothing more than my sentinel shield. It is so damn emotional.

1:50 when the music swells up so triumphantly is just...so perfect. Well done on another awesome piece

The brass in this makes the piece INCREDIBLY powerful! Absolutely outstanding performance!

[@Flame78945]

this deserves so much more views

[@maeyko.]

I found this video a year and a half later than I wished I had. Truly beautiful, gave me goosebumps!

[@joanhailey8969]

Goddamn, this one made me cry. You've succeeded in hitting the same emotional resonance that "Unforgotten/Never Forget" from the Halo games hit for me. This feels like the funeral of a dearly beloved character, and I appreciate it immensely. 💜

[@jamesthistleton]

Damn. Thanks for sharing that. I loved Halo's reflective tracks too, so I think it might have an influence here.

[@Lio_Harter]

Pov: You just finishede rdr2

[@Staubbs]

Damn, didn't know infinite brass had such good sounds!

[@themadwarden6603]

Sometimes, a little-known youtuber makes one of the best pieces I have ever heard. This is one of those times.

[@ThatchersResolute]

Man this feels so heroic

[@thewhowiz7982]

I'm sorry about the delay. I'm migrating to a new notation software, From Finale to Dorico. For the Ensemble how does 2Trp, 2H, 3Trb, 1Tba/Euph sound? Could also do a brass quintet.
