This song is dedicated to a forest tribe that I invented for my fantasy world (in which the novel will take place), the Alvae (Alva in Singular). I used Celtic instruments as well as a full orchestra for this song and wanted to give it several mood changes; Peaceful, ethereal, mysterious and a sense of pride and honour. It was difficult for me to show each aspect of the Alvae in this song because their characteristics are very complex.
The tribe of the Alvae will not be mentioned in the fantasy book itself that I'm writing because the story takes place several millennia before the tribe even emerges so for now this song is the only thing you'll get to „see" from them, I'm sorry.^^ I will maybe write an own novel about them in the future but at the moment I can't tell whether or not it will happen.
Composed and arranged 100% by myself on keyboard, as always.
The artwork was made by this great artist:

Adrian, I cannot tell you how many times your music got me trough the most difficult days. Just today, my boss freaked out about something and I needed to do a lot of tasks. But the problem was, emotions were so strong and negative, but then I remembered your music, I am playing it still...calmed me down, made me be more focused and relaxed to finish my work. Amazing work Adrian! Simply...you are amazing!

In his Q&A Adrian explained the meaning of this song: This is a song that is about a part of my fantasy world and it is about a specific tribe. This tribe was expelled by another tribe into the forest, they became a very unique culture and that is what the song is about The word Alvae means "the white ones" Personally, I thought that "Alvae" was the name of the woman who appears in the image, although in my mind it will continue like this

Hi Alessia, thank you so much (Also best greetings from Carina)! The word comes from my self-created language, from the adjective "alvi" which means "white". Personified it becomes "Alva" (the White), Alvae is the Plural. The tribe is called by that name because they are descendants from a civilization that was known as "Whiterobes" based on their priesthood. Anyway, I could go on forever like this, but I guess this explains already a lot. xD

Which I had been trying to find information about for years. I know it doesn't seem like much to most people, but it is huge to me. And what better way to experience that then while listening to the music of my favorite composer?

Love the idea of the Alvae. I am also writing a fantasy novel, involving woodland people. The species is called Anaris and those who live in forests are called the Lanar. Some of them also live by the sea and are called the Shunar. The Lanar and the Shunar do not like each other very much, but I haven't yet figured out why...

Culture differences? Old historic grudges? Conflict for resources? Or all that at once. Sea people could just need richer forest lands and make an old legend as an excuse for invasion.

@songoferin3427 10 жыл бұрын

Андрій Пенцак Think it's going to be old historic grudges. But a Lanar and a Shunar end up travelling together, so I'm going to let the story come out gradually (much to the annoyance of the third party member)

@Bleachshugo 9 жыл бұрын

I think it sounds like a good story. Maybe those cultural differences could be that one group of people took the other's land and for years they were at odds with one another, until the third party came in and divided the lands to cease the fighting. Is the story surrounding one character or a group of people? I can help with ideas if you want. I'm a writer myself :3

@songoferin3427 9 жыл бұрын

Amu Hinamori The story surrounds a small group of people: one human, three Shunar and at least one Lanar. I've got the plot worked out, it's the background stuff like this that's annoying me and when the Shunar and Lanar meet, there's going to be a lot of hostility, but I have to give a reason as to why.
