Christopher Tin to compose Civilization VI theme
Composer that created Civilization IV's main theme is returning to the franchise
2K and Firaxis Games have announced Christopher Tin is the composer of the title theme for Sid Meier’s Civilization VI.
Christopher Tin is known for his composing of the only piece of video game music to win a Grammy Award, the title theme to Civilization IV called ‘Baba Yetu’. The theme song for Civilization VI will be called ‘Sogno di Volare’ (The Dream of Flight).
“I wanted to write a piece that captured the essence of exploration, both the physical exploration of seeking new lands, but also the mental exploration of expanding the frontiers of science and philosophy," said Tin.
The world premiere of ‘Sogno di Volare’ will take place at the Cadogan Hall in London, England on July 19th. Tin will be accompanied by Britain’s National Orchestra, The Royal Philharmonic Orchestra, The Angel City Chorale (US), Prima Vocal Ensemble (UK) and Lucis (UK). Alongside the performance of ‘Sogno di Volare’ will be a rendition of ‘Baba Yetu’.
Sid Meier’s Civilization VI will be released for PC this October.
