Remember all of those fun RPG's and Anime's from your childhood? Do Final Fantasy, Spirited Away, and Breath Of The Wild come to mind?Now Imagine for a second that you'll be able to make music for those games and media. Otoe Levels 1, and Otoe Levels 2&3 are a godsend to you if you'd like to learn how to write music for this genre. I highly recommend purchasing this course if you'd like to upgrade your harmonic palette as well as music theory!

"As someone who has always been inspired by contemporary Japanese music, this course has been invaluable to me. In a world of primarily western focused music theory, Gavin's work is a lighthouse illuminating the innovative techniques of modern Japanese harmony. With Ryan's brilliant expertise in orchestration, the two of them are a powerhouse that any composer interested in this style will benefit immensely from."

As a software engineer during the week and a hobbyist composer on weekends, I've always loved creating music. Despite over a decade and a half of classical piano lessons as a student, I lacked the skills to orchestrate my ideas. Master the Score has been an invaluable resource in bridging that gap. Courses like "20th Century Orchestral Writing" and "Pillars of Composition" make complex topics approachable, helping me connect the dots with patterns I recognised but never fully understood. Courses like The Legend of Otoe and Composing Worlds also bring a special focus that adds sparkle to my compositions.

I now feel much more confident orchestrating my work, and I’ve even found greater enjoyment in films by discovering the same techniques and ideas from the courses and understanding their applications.

The course did not only teach me the jrpg style, but also helped me to expand my harmonic vocabulary. Every composition I wrote since finishing with Legends of Otoe benefited from this new knowledge. I am eagerly looking forward to Legends of Otoe part two!
