Title: Aria Math
Game: Minecraft
Composer: C418
Arranger: Jacob Keeley
Ft. Maegan Blake (Alto Saxophone), Will Duis (Bassoon), Sara Riso (French Horn)
“Aria Math” is one of the most beloved songs from the iconic soundtrack to Minecraft. The track’s instantly recognizable handpan motif can be heard in the game when the player is in creative mode, with the song serving as a serene sonic backdrop to the freedom of the open world. Whether you’re building a massive city, testing out a new iron farm, or just burning down a forest for fun, you can float away listening to the sublime ambiance created by the sweeping strings and reverberant synth melodies. This orchestral adaptation scales up the soundscapes of the original track, while maintaining its unintrusive placidity.
