Quest Of The Dream Warrior (CD)

David Arkenstone is a visionary keyboardist and composer who creates bold, symphonic programs endowed with historical and literary themes. His music has a heroic quality that lends itself to movie scores and soundtracks (ROBOT WARS, MANDROID) and conceptual works like the Tolkien-derived MUSIC INSPIRED BY THE MIDDLE EARTH. As a teen, Arkenstone immersed himself in classical music and the classic rock and prog rock of the 1960s and '70s. His early albums, released in the 1980s on the Narada label, reflect these roots, while later albums include elements of World music as well.

David Arkenstone's QUEST OF THE DREAM WARRIOR is a bold musical adventure, in the most literal sense, as it follows the raven-haired Kyla through a dark and perilous journey. The people of Darnaak have turned against Kyla, claiming that she has invoked the wrath of the Shadow of the Great Darkness.

She ventures forth, to Elidor and the Murky Pools, to the forest known as Faeholt, over the Bridge of Silk and ultimately, into the Wings of the Shadow, where her destiny awaits. Churning banks of synthesized sound and mesmerizing cross rhythms accompany her on her journey, as Arkenstone's musical sleight of hand works its usual magic.
