A transcription I created of one of the most iconic themes from Fire Emblem: Awakening alongside a recording I created to test its accuracy.
--------------------
➤ Analysis:
This was a tricky one (not as tricky as "To One With Life" where the audio quality in the original wasn't great) due to all of the tiny little details they scatter about the music, as they usually do to great effect!
The "Awakening" motif features prominently throughout in several variations, perhaps more so in this track than any other in the game, from 0:27, 0:37, 0:46, 0:58, 1:08, 1:18 and 1:28 before giving way to a new motif in the trombones at 1:37.
The piece is effectively divided in to two sections: the first (0:00 - 1:59) where it builds and builds with more instruments added with each phrase before breaking off to silence.
And the second section in 12/8 (although this signature change could happen earlier, or not at all, it is tricky to tell) where there is a lot of new material, with the occasional reference to earlier material (2:46 referencing 0:03, and the trombone of 2:20 referencing one of the primary themes of the first section).
The piano arpeggios are a little dubious, since they are very blurred in the original. Though I have plucked out certain pitches I can definitely hear and then added in the surrounding arpeggio notes to reach these more certain notes.
There is also one brief instance of a clarinet (0:58), which is then silent for the remainder of the piece. So it is possible that the clarinet is actually not a part of this piece, or that it has a larger part that I did not pick up on.
As a bit of trivia, the composers reuse the tubular bell pattern of 2:46 in "A Dark Fall" from Fire Emblem: Fates, here: youtu.be/gBQFNUJ8s2A?t=1m56s
--------------------
The score was created in Sibelius 7.5, and the audio was created in Cubase using the brilliant EastWest sample libraries.
