Title: Abyss Of Lost Dreams

Artist: AuderMarr

Year: 2024

Running Time: 5:24

DESCRIPTION - Composition written in the loose form of a concerto for piano and strings. It is structured in 7 sections narrating the intro cutscene of an imaginary game.

THE CONCEPT - By getting inspired by the main image shown in the competition page, I have envisioned the extremely sad story, set in a fictional Far Eastern country during the early 20th Century, of a little girl obsessed with the sea who tragically drowns in it after strolling around her town with her mother during a sacred holiday. Because of an ancient curse cast by a cruel god, whoever drowns during that holiday is condemned to live in a limbo between life and death under the very waters that have swallowed them. A community of benevolent water spirits, touched by her tragic fate, decide to take her in and manage to transform her in a hybrid between a human and one of their kin, in order to break the curse; by doing this, though, they strip her of the eternal condition that would have expected her, so she will age and die exactly like one of them. 

Once becoming a young woman, she decides to go and face the cruel god on her own, determined to interrupt the curse action once and for all, so that no one will ever go through what she almost risked to experience. The imaginary game I have composed this pièce for should exactly carry the player through her dangerous journey to accomplish her mission.
