Dragon Age™: Origins (Original Game Soundtrack) Title: Dragon Age Origins Released On: December 8, 2009 Composed By: Inon Zur & Aubrey Ashburn Arranged By: Inon Zur Published By: Elecronic Arts Music Dragon Age: Origins is a role-playing video game developed by BioWare and published by Electronic Arts. It is the first game in the Dragon Age franchise, and was released for Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 3, and Xbox 360 in November 2009, and for OS X in December 2009. Edge of Reality developed the game's console versions. The game features an orchestral soundtrack with choir, used both in-game and during cutscenes. The soundtrack was recorded by performance of a 44-piece orchestra, recorded twice and merged to sound like an 88-piece orchestra. It was composed by Inon Zur and performed by the Northwest Sinfonia. According to Zur, he intentionally made most of the soundtrack feel “dark“, combining low brass and bass string instruments with ancient drums to express a feeling that is both heroic and demonic. One of the tracks, “Leliana's Song“, was composed in under 24 hours. The soundtrack was presented at a panel in the Hollywood Music in Media Interactive Conference in 2009, and was performed as part of the September 26 “A Night in Fantasia 2009“ concert in Sydney, Australia, by the Eminence Symphony Orchestra. Origins contains a large amount of voice acting recorded in the US and the UK. Actors include Tim Russ, Steve Valentine, Kate Mulgrew, Simon Templeman, Mark Rolston, Tim Curry, Adam Howden, Nicola Bertram, and Claudia Black. In total, more than 140 voice actors worked on the game. The song I Am The One, written by Inon Zur and Aubrey Ashburn and performed by Aubrey Ashburn, won the Hollywood Music in Media Award in 2009 for “Best Original Song – Video Game“. Simon Pressley of BioWare EA also won the Hollywood Music in Media Award in 2009 for “Outstanding Music Supervision - Video Game“.
