[Putnam]

I started making it in 7/8 time but realized it sounds better in 15/8 time (mixed meter 7+8).

This is fun.

EDIT: And it'll look better if I just have it switch between 7/8 and 8/8...

[Timeless Bob]

File downloaded and starting my turn.

[Putnam]

7/8 and 9/8, heck, might as well just be 4/4, but that doesn't look as good.

EDIT: First draft

Midi
Sheet music

[Timeless Bob]

So the "Gregorian chant" version didn't work out so well.  Instead, I went for a more lively tune that still has some melancholy in it.
(Fair warning, I'm not the world's best vocalist by far.)

The tune is actually the theme song from a movie named "The Piano" .  It's quite dramatic and the main character actually is mute, so she speaks through her piano playing, which can be quite powerful.  The music (especially from 1:30 or so) really seems to fit your poem's tragedy, while still conveying the hero's robustness in striking out into the wild.

[Putnam]

My version, as far as I can tell, seems to take the most inspiration from... the theme of a Namco game on NES that I never played.

That is amazing..

Great moody piece, Putnam, that would go very well with gregorian chanting.
Timeless Bob, you have a great voice. The piece fits right into a fantasy/medieval setting. The fantasy language really comes to life.

I love how one of the shortest, most unsuccessful adventures is being turned into one of the most memorable ones. losing is fun..
I think its best for everyone involved that I refrain from submitting any music myself, instead I'll be working on some cover art for the album over the weekend.

That. Is amazing!

I certainly can't do it; I'm (I'm pretty sure) a tenor and I can only sing comfortably in mezzo-soprano ranges.

I can't find the link to Turn 48, so I will wait until Timeless Bob has finished his turn before updating the adventurer table.

Sorry, I only sent it to Bralbaard. Here it is: https://www.dropbox.com/s/o9ub3f8rit5qkw8/The%20Museum%20-%20Turn%2048.zip

Adventurer list updated. Had to do some searching - legends mode didn't record who killed you - so I searched the bandit camps around Dinnerwandered until I found the chap who killed you. Still had a smear of your blood on his nose, of all places.

Well aint this just fine! As it comes closer to Christmas the Museum gets a holiday feel. *Hums Rudolph the red nosed reindeer under his breath*

Nearly Christmas? It's barely past Halloween! I demand zombies and mummies and vampires and werewolves.

Excellent work on the music guys.

Hey! It is November! One more month to December...And we all know what that means. Yes this is a happy message. Get ready to open your hearts...and your wallets 

[Timeless Bob]

Why wait for December?  People like "gifts-for-no-reason-other-than-it-seemed-like-a-good-idea-at-the-time".  I do that to my fam and freinds all the time.  cards, little tchotchke's, recorded messages, ect...  They all know they can get love-as-gifts any time.
