Skyrim’s main theme is sung by a choir of 30 singers, and is known as Dragonborn or Song of the Dragonborn. The Dragon Language, properly known as Thuum, is the means by which dragons, and in fact the Dragonborn, use to breathe fire and frost attacks towards. Why is the soundtrack so good? Well for starters, composer Jeremy Soule led a full symphony orchestra to record over 50 tracks for the game (Soule is affectionately known as the “John Williams of video game music” and is responsible for the soundtracks of Morrowind, Oblivion, as well as a host of other video games and films). A video game’s soundtrack may not be at the top of everyone’s list when it comes to rating how good a particular title is (graphics and gameplay tend to trump music as a matter of course), but Skyrim’s soundtrack truly is remarkable and gives the game an epic vibe worthy of any blockbuster movie.
