Hi, Sci-Fi/Fantasy Composer here

[ChrisMc]

I have just launched a channel on Instagram exhibiting bookish fan art around themes with original music @ http://www.instagram.com/chrismccosmeremusic - beginning with The Way of Kings.
The plan is to move on to other Cosmere works, as well as musical takes on the worlds of Rothfuss, Herbert (this could prove challenging - looking at you Mr. Zimmer), Jordan, and LeGuin, amongst others.

I also have a more general YouTube channel where I recently posted interpretations of the tones of the Rosharan Shards @ https://www.youtube.com/@ChrisMcCarterMusic. I am dreaming of Sci-Fi/Fantasy inspired concert music performed more widely, of which this project is looking towards. But I have written more on that elsewhere

Hope to get into some good chin-wagging here. The concert music especially is something I would really like to form around communities, so would love to hear peoples thoughts.

Cheers!

Welcome to the Shard!

How did you get into music, and composing in general?

Which of Brandon’s books have you read? Or haven’t read, if that list is shorter?

Who is your favorite character so far?
