Really cool track, perfectly captured the theme, I love the sound selection and composition, I think the track could benefit by the implementation of more natural dynamics in the instruments interpretation, but the feeling and vibe is perfectly captured anyways! great job!!

Description
This is a submission for "Impressions Composing Jam OST #1" wherein participants are tasked with creating a soundtrack based on the theme of the Death Knight character archetype.
Taking inspiration from Mozart's "Don Giovanni", I wanted "The Death Knight Takes the Field" to have a big, bombastic opening. Then I took inspiration for the slow galloping rhythm from Langisser 2's "Leon's Theme". I also made sure to include moments of harmonic tension.
