Skyrim 10th Anniversary Concert

I’ve owned Skyrim for over 10 years, initially getting the game for the Xbox 360, but never got around to playing it properly. I think that I found the sheer scope of the game intimidating and so never really got any further than the first hour or so.

Getting the Nintendo Switch port I could pick it up and play and, during Covid and the long periods of lockdown, I poured a couple of hundred hours into it- finally ‘completing it’ mid-2021. With a game like Skyrim though it isn’t about reaching the end but the journey and what a journey it is. A huge part of the whole experience is the stunning music, composed by Jeremy Soule, which is one of my favourite scores of all time. To commemorate its 10th anniversary, Bethesda has released a full concert performance of the score. It’s my go-to background accompaniment music for reading comics and books now. Check out the entire concert below and be teleported.
