In Nature, Fire is an unstoppable force. Left to its own devises, it will consume everything in its path. In a way, it is alive.

I took the name literally and wrote an orchestral soundtrack style song. This was great fun for me because I usually write electronic music. For this entry, which is my first to worth1000, I used only:
1:Ableton Live 8
2:Edirol's Orchestral Vsti Plug in
3:Fire!

I hope you like it. Please comment. I hope to see more of this kind of contest here on worth1000

Part I - Flames (in D minor)
This is a three parted work and Flames is the first of them. Smoulder and Smoke are the others. It was to be a 4th part (Ash) but it never reached the the audible world... maybe in some other time.

A fire in the forest is always a moment of death. In memory of all the creatures that perished in any blazing deathtrap here's a farewell.

A Requiem mass is usually a powerful musical work, often played in churches or cathedrals. Its orchestration may be very different from version but it has usually a choir. In this case, since it's impossible for me to get a choir, strings took this place but all the melody is based in the vocal parts.

Requiem aeternam dona eis, Domine,
Et lux perpetua luceat eis.
Te decet hymnus, Deus, in Sion,
et tibi reddetur votum in Jerusalem:
Exaudi orationem meam,
ad te omnis caro veniet.
Requiem aeternam dona eis, Domine,
Et lux perpetua luceat eis.
