Triumphantly approaching, from either side - diving and dodging, far and wide. Success is at hand, but not yet here - the drive to continue is strikingly clear.
Based on the concluding fanfare from Liszt's Les Préludes, as featured in the 1940s Flash Gordon Conquers the Universe. Featuring orchestra and improvised overdubbed clarinet.

Jubilant and chaotic! Mix sounds great - what are you using for the orchestra? Parts lay together really well. So good.

Thanks! The orchestra is a bunch of virtual instruments - mostly Symphobia 2, plus Cinesamples for the winds, Sonuscore for the organ, and Soundiron Olympus Elements for the choir. Most of the effort was in orchestrating the MIDI (which is from Liszt as the description said), the mix itself is fairly simple - though I mixed in stereo before deciding to hard pan and add the clarinets.
This is an insane WB entry. You’re just going crazy with it.
Thanks! It comes from a prompt for another weekly music prompt, the Disquiet Junto - https://llllllll.co/t/disquiet-junto-project-0756-in-a-flash/74884
It's based on the theme to Flash Gordon - which, I still can't claim to understand, but did watch an episode to try to get a feel for it.
The hard panning decision was a bit of a provocative whim - I liked both the orchestration and the improvisation and wanted to be able to control them separately on playback.
This hard pan is gonna drive me up the wall, but it's very pretty otherwise.
