Inon Zur’s Into the Storm Debuts on Classic FM
The recording of Into the Storm is a performance by the City of Prague Philharmonic Orchestra which features the accompaniment of cellist Tina Guo and violinist Caroline Campbell. The debut was an exclusive for Classic FM’s ‘Classic FM Drive’ show; a 2-hour radio show hosted by John Brunning. The track can be heard at the 1:35:00 mark of the 2-hour show, available here. “That Classic FM exclusive first play is music by Inon Zur,” says Brunning; “who’s composed the music to more than fifty video games. He’s an Israeli-American composer and this is his latest track called Into the Storm.”
An online release for Into the Storm will be occurring tomorrow; the 1st of March, so check back tomorrow for our coverage of the release. Into the Storm is the first single of an upcoming album; Inon Zur’s first standalone album released through a new partnership with Sony Masterworks. Late last year, we were fortunate enough to interview both Inon Zur and cellist Tina Guo about the album as well as the partnership with Sony Masterworks.
Of course, Inon Zur is best known as the video game composer behind franchises like Fallout and Dragon Age; his most recently released work was the soundtrack for Fallout 76. He is also the composer for The Elder Scrolls Blades, the upcoming Elder Scrolls mobile title. Following several delays, that game currently has no release date, but expectations are that it will launch in the next few months. In other news concerning the composer, retailer SpaceLab9 recently announced new limited edition LPs for Skyrim and Fallout 4; the latter of course featuring Inon Zur’s complete soundtrack for that game.
