ABOUT THE WITCHER: SEASON 2
Based on the best-selling fantasy series of books, THE WITCHER is an epic tale of fate and family. The story of the intertwined destinies of three individuals in the vast world of The Continent, where humans, elves, witchers, dwarves, and monsters battle to survive and thrive, and where good and evil is not easily identified. Convinced Yennefer’s life was lost at the Battle of Sodden, Geralt of Rivia brings Princess Cirilla to the safest place he knows, his childhood home of Kaer Morhen. While the Continent’s kings, elves, humans and demons strive for supremacy outside its walls, he must protect the girl from something far more dangerous: the mysterious power she possesses inside.
ABOUT JOSEPH TRAPANESE:
Joseph Trapanese is best known for his sleek score work for blockbuster films like Tron: Legacy, Straight Outta Compton, The Greatest Showman, Oblivion and the Raid series. As a composer, arranger, and producer for movie, television, theater, and video game music, he has collaborated with a number of mainstream musical acts. His first major break came in 2010 when he worked with Daft Punk on the sweeping digital soundtrack to Disney's Tron reboot/sequel. Trapanese followed that success by creating a score with Mike Shinoda of Linkin Park for the American release of the 2011 Indonesian martial arts film The Raid: Redemption (he would continue without Shinoda in 2014 with The Raid 2). That same year, he helped with arrangements on a handful of tracks for M83's breakthrough hit Hurry Up, We're Dreaming, which led to the pair's collaboration on the 2013 Tom Cruise sci-fi epic Oblivion. For 2017's The Greatest Showman, Trapanese worked alongside Pasek & Paul and John Debney, producing songs and co-composing the score. Notable scores include Shadow and Bone(2021), Finding Ohana (2021), Star Wars: Tales from the Galaxy’s Edge(2020), Project Power(2020), Ladyand the Tramp (2019), Arctic (2019), Robin Hood (2018), Only the Brave (2017), the landmark rap biopic Straight Outta Compton (2015), and the second and third installments of the Divergent series, Insurgent (2015) and Allegiant (2016).

“All you have to do Ciri, is keep your sword close, and keep moving.”
What an amazing scene
This quote is a reference to the conversation between Calanthe and Ciri. "As in life, it is impossible always to be fully prepared for battle. Keep your sword close... and keep moving."
Geralt wasn’t just speaking to Ciri, he was also speaking to all of us.
@@hawk66100 Was he really?
@@yrsjhydjmdhyt He was, and it's message to those who read the books and played the games
Yennefer when she’s reaching out and trying to open portal but her powers are gone . She falls to ground and screams .
Powerful music
3:38 onwards sounds more Witcher worthy. I hope the rest of the soundtrack sounds more like the ending of this. But I'm really missing Sonya and Giona's sound right now. S1 soundtrack was so fantastic.
Didn't really like the first 3 minutes of this track
I dont know why they replaced them coz they were so perfect.New soundtrack isn't like the old one .
I was wonderwing too why they changed the composers. But it i nice it seems.
Just listen to the Kaer Morhen ost
Agreeed hope the season goes well
Wait, Sonya Belousova and Giona Ostinelli won't be returning???
Really enjoyed their score for the first season, the sound was clearly inspired by the games but still had some great original themes.
Was particularly looking forward to see what they would do with the "song of the white wolf" theme in this season
I'm bummed Sonya and Giona aren't involved, either. I hope this composer is up to the task. This sample track didn't do much for me. Hopefully there are some more inspiring and passionate tracks. I love listening to the first season full soundtrack often enough. Maybe they'll come back for season 3? :)
kinda sad they actually arent coming back, the ost on this one just sounds like a generic epic score that has no feel to it.
@@zoinksscoob6523 I noticed in season 2, episode 5 (or maybe 4) they almost exclusively used music from the first season (and not meaning the re-interpreted versions of season 1 music done by this season's composer). Nothing really stuck out for me of the new composer's work.
this guy made a better score'
When i saw Joseph Trapanese i already knew its gonna be great.
To all those hate comments…. It’s just one track, chill.
Judge after you’ve heard it all, 3:38 is pretty good
well what's the point if the you have to sit through 75% of the song to get to the good part?
From 3:38 it gets more Witchery like. I like this soundtrack alot. This was used in the scene with Ciri and Geralt training at the end of episode 2. Gave me goosebumps.
@@DaNuker the good part starts at 00:00 and ends at 04:44
@@DaNuker That's literally how most soundtracks are. 🤦♂️
The ending is not the same as the tv show!! that song has a more powerful beat
I don't know what everyone is complaining about; this is a great new soundtrack....loving the new music.
Just tantrums for what they did to Eskel in the series
@@Victor30461 only Eskel?Butchering so many chararacters, like Geralt putting Ciri in danger, Yen trying to betray them or making her lose her powers for no reason, Vessemir trying to make Ciri a witcher...WHY WHY WHY?
@@solaek21 I barely see complains about that, most of them are "boo-hoo, they killed Eskel"
@@solaek21 I was soo pissed about eskel but geralt was training her but yeah vessemir trying to make her a witcher was odd. I want to see more of geralt for sure and focus on monster hunting and such
@@Josh-py9rq it was his hope for the continuation of the witcher formula. Not to make ciri a witcher. You didn't catch the hints properly probably.
Great soundtrack..gives me goosebumps while watching geralt teaching ciri the sword movements on the grounds of kaer morhen with this music on background ❤️❤️❤️
I listened to it yesterday the first time, I found it a little weird, I listened to it several times today, in fact it is incredible. And I think of the scene that will go with it, surely Kaer Morhen. I loved the music from the first season. We might have less of a Slavic style in the soundtrack, but is it really bad if we win in epic, I don't think so. And they still reuse some remixed tracks from S1. The only thing that I was afraid for the S2 was the soundtrack, for the rest everything will be better than the S1, the story, fights, monsters, lights, images. See you on the path on 17 young wolves ⚔
@@gabrielferreira8393 The song of the white wolf is so touching😅
I so agree with you, I am bit concerned about the change in the music style. I think to please the fan from the game they went for more epic music. However the music from the season 1 had something quite different and new with great voices! And it truly gave a style to the show. But I will make my mind while watcing the season 2.
I don't think there was ever anything slavic in the soundtrack...Exotic doesn't mean slavic specifically.
I was really excited to see what Sonya and Giona would create for S2 but this sounds nice, too. Feels a little different from S1 but not bad different.
Picking up Wild Hunt vibes. Especially the last minute. 😝👏
This sounds like Ciri's theme. On the border between ancient/Mystical magic and trying to become a Witcher. I like it. The Scandinavian element is definitely still there, but obviously for this piece it's used sparingly (perhaps on purpose).
it’s not a scandinavian production.
Ha, I see what you did there!
It's not Scandinavian, it's Slavic.
They changed the composer for the season 2? Why???:((
He saw the script...
3:02 this is great! the power and purpose of Kaer Morhen
3:02 this path its so dope and powerful - i love it so much
Ending ep 2 goosebumps Henry is the perfect geralt and Freya as ciri
Perfect ! The witcher vibes at the end of this music 😍
people listen to one track of an 8 episode show
ITS TERRIBLE BLABLABLA
i like it :)
This OST is criminally underrated.
Not a hater of the New composer but i loved so much Sonya's score from season 1. I think they had to keep with with the first composer. That slavic vibe fits the show, im a bit upset right now
I think they should get Percival Schuttenbach ASAP, then no matter the composer music will have proper vibes.
It's decent but nowhere near any of the tracks from season 1. I have no idea why they changed the composer but it's a shame. I keep coming back to that soundtrack regularly, it's beautiful. I hope the rest of the tracks from s02 are better.
The first half reminds me ALOT of the Witcher 1 game music the 2nd half sounds alot like from Witcher 3..... Love this!
Great soundtrack. Pretty tired of reading comments that first season was much better. They are both well made and fitting.
Exactly
Sounds like mix between Trapanese's "Fearfull Odds" from the movie Oblivion and Hans Zimmer's style. It's great !
After 2:00min it sounds amazing!
it works perfectly with the scene
keep your sword close..and keep moving
This soundtrack is truly magnificent because of its meaning. One of the best epic music.
J'aime beaucoup la musique, vraiment. Ce genre de musiques sont les musiques que je pourrai écouter pendant des heures et je trouve celle-ci incroyable. Malgré tout je peux comprendre que certains soient déçus par le fait que l'identité musicale que l'on avait dans la saison 1 soit moins précise. Mais il ne faut pas dire qu'elle a disparue, c'est faux. Il n'y a qu'à écouter à partir de 3:38 on retrouve des instruments utilisés dans la saison 1. Ils ont juste voulu faire un "compromis" entre les deux styles de musique. Il faudra voir à quelle fréquence les musiques plus nordiques seront utilisées à la sortie de la saison.
Witcher isn't about nordic music having main role but slavic, especially with your example :)
But it generaly has nordic vibes too ofc.
@@TheMateuszNH Yes excuse me, thanks for the correction.
@@TheMateuszNHAuthor is Slavic.. That's it..The series doesnt even take place in our universe. There's no Europe or Slavic nations in it. Maybe, i dunno, have an imagination
This Is Amazing. I love it
FINALLY SOMETHING THAT SOUND'S LIKE SLAVIC FOLK MUSIC!!!! Still not as great as Percival but it's getting there.
Just here to say (after Henry's announcement) nobody could replace you as a witcher, you hear me Henry? No oneeee ffs
Now many fans are signing a petition to remove the useless showrunners who caused a loyal fan to leave the initially promising project if they did not do what was done. If you are interested I can share the link to the petition with you, at least this is how we can support Henry and his great performance of the Witcher
And on the list of things no one asked for: new Witcher composers
I liked the last bit. I feel like I heard the rest before, which is a shame. Exploit the story's Slavic roots please!
Primeiro Brasileiro a comentar:
The Witcher com certeza sabe fazer Ótimas soundtracks vey, ansioso pras proximas
Thank you for Divine Melody for The Witcher 2 !! Very high quality season. Watching for the second time.
I can’t find the background music in episode 3 when Gerald was covering ciri’s wounds it’s just way too good
I think the comments here are unnecessarily negative, you have to think how this music will fit into scenes in the show.
This music is good... everyone chill the fuck out
Meh. Pretty sure people are allowed to have their own opinions.
@@offbeatartistry *inserts "you don't say" meme here*
I agree . But I also agree with them . You can't just aceppt everything because of doing . Soundtrack isn't bad but it deserved to be a lot more
@@offbeatartistry Well my opinion is that they shouldn't be allowed to have opinions.
Definitely a different feel from the previous season but I like it.
Same here.
This evokes a journey of great loss and of great discovery to me, so it will work if the scenes are fitting. The scenes will make or break it. The first series was far from perfect, but it still grabbed me emotionally at the right moments and there's lots to build on, have a little hope people. You'll be back here loving this music soon enough, because the journey we're about to go on is going to be truly epic.
3:17 goosebumps
I really like this soundtrack.
Its tough to listen to this thinking Soneya and Giona aren't the compsers again, but it does seem like Netflix thinks The Witcher is outgrowing them and is giving a lot more of a cinematic tone and quality to the score. This sounds very different compared to Season 1's themes, which saddens me a lot, but as a Witcher superfan I am also really happy with this music cause it is definitely being taken a lot more seriously as an amazing piece of work for the Witcher franchise overall.
This is beautiful and sad at the same time love it ♥️
This season's soundtrack is great in and of itself however, I wish more elements of the main theme were included.
Sounds very hans zimmeresque
this sounds great wooooooooooooo
Not sure why Netflix made this move and changed composer for Season 2 really. This is not a bad soundtrack, not a bad composer, it is just not something that should be in Witcher. First season music was unique and so very well done and it was like a very natural part of Witcher universe. I don't hear that slavic touch here anymore. Music has such a huge impact on movies and their atmosphere, changing composers after such a huge success of soundtrack in Season 1 can make a big difference and overall effect will be different. I'm surprised Netflix made this move. I was so inspired by Season one atmosphere, and I was waiting for Season 2 to get even more inspiration for myself, but I'm not excited about this change.
How do you know they changed the composer?
It's certainly because few peoples criticized the music of Season 1
@@voiavictor it's Joseph Trapanese now. And it's write on the pictures of the video.
@@aegnor2102 I doubt it. Soundtrack to first season was a huge success - it was not wise to change the direction in such important part of the production. Game of Thrones and other series didn’t change composers over seasons. Such things normally happen because parties didn’t have mutual agreement about some aspect. Probably it’s a money or royalties issue. I don’t see other reason.
My exact same feeling
3:00 > 4:44 🔥🔥
I loved the old soundtrack style but this is absolutely amazing
This is great.
4:00
why does it sound like "Ezio's Family" by Jesper Kyd?
It really sounds like it. Not a copy, melody is slightly different, but idea of arrangement is same, also same key and tempo. Accidents happen for sure, and "all music is already written" but it really sounds like a pulled up idea. Funny that I only liked this part here.
Beautiful 😭👏
The beautiful soundtrack ❤
This is EPIC !!!
Starting my 2022 with it ...
Dunno bout you guys but i like it better than S1 soundtrack.Just to show that series version is its own. Though its sounds like the theme song of Gladiator.
Excellent 🙏🙏🙏❤️❤️❤️
I likee this but we shall see. I love what Sonia did with the first season. Especially the opening credits : ) THINK she was able to capture the right sound, draw inspiration from the games and also do her own thing.
What an epic song
this sounds more refined and better than the first season. very excited to hear more.
Brilliant!
I hope we get to see avallac'h in the series but he's well portrayed like an elf :)
There is a lack of the folk sounds we got in the previous season, yet I believe this sounds great.
Although it's not a bad song in itself, it really lacks the mystical slavic vibes, diversity and originality the first season gave us. I fell in love with Sonya et Giona's work, and was hoping for more of it. This one song is fine by me, but not nearly close in comparison to what I've expected the S2 soundtrack to be. Yes, I know it's just one track and it does not reflect the overall quality of the show yet to come, or even the work this new composer surely put in it, but man it doesn't help for now building an unique and interesting atmosphere I've been personnally craving for. Give us something unheard of, for a change, not something interchangeable with any piece of fantasy media already existing.
Love it!
I love it
Middle of this song sounds like ‘Final Frontier’ from one of the trailer music to Interstellar, and after 3 minutes onwards is a lot like the Assassins Creed II Theme if you sang the main 4 notes. Nonetheless that’s why I like this track so much lol
So no Sonya then... That's disappointing
Joseph Trapanese also did Shadow and Bones soundtrack.
I love Joseph Trapanese
Here before it goes viral🔥🔥
I love the track and at the same time I can't believe how did they make Eskel a full macho anti-feminism Chad and killed him like that.
Hmmm ... I really hope there is more "witcher" sound in the other tracks, because this one sounds like boring MCU noise. At the end it get's a bit better, but I have a really bad feeling about this. Why hasn't the ladies who did season 1 showed up for this?
I've seen the series now. The music is really boring and sadly the story too for the most parts. Very disappointed. This time I will not buy the soundtrack ...
Digging it
Slow build up, but it is incredible 😍
Witcher is the Best!
When Cirilla Finally Start Growing Up
Does anybody know if this song can be used in a non-monetized video on RUclips ? Thanks.
anyone know the ost on season 2 episode 8 when they put a bounty on ciri/ rience and lydia talk
Where is the epic drop at 3:38 like in the credits?!
They are evolving their music theme, to more a Witcher-esc / Elder Blood theme..
The only thing we know best, is how a Witcher theme should sound like, and although Geralt's theme is missing from Season 2, it seems like there are many things to evolve here.
Wild hunt,emyhre,s3 will b exciting❤️
Amazing music, amazing scenes, Season 2 is amazing. People that complain that its not in line with the books can kiss my bumcheeks.
I actually really like the first 3 minutes, they express a lot of emotions imo. I think I like this season's sountrack way more than Sonya and Giona's.
But you cand find... POWER... AND PURPOSE.
What everyone expected from this season's soundtrack was 03:35. I wish the rest of the soundtrack were as good as this.
Anyone know what song played when roach died
If anyone actually reads these, could you please release the FULL version of the song from S2E2 end/credits? It is such a disappointment to not be able to find the show version of the song.
I liked S1 Soundtrack. I dont why but it doesnt feel that close.
I’m picking up a major Shadow and Bone vibe here. Love it!
Tbf Joseph Trapanese composed the music for that series too.
I feel like it need some hurdy gurdy sounds to it.
CHEF'S KISS!!!
3:00, 3:40 and 4:08 eargasms!!!!!
Me gusta pero nada supera a las compositoras de la primera temporada
Sounds like Assassin's Creed mixed With Witcher and Game Of Thrones
More like Hans Zimmer Time and Skyrim Jerall mountains (at the begining).
sigo re manija con este outro, es muy bueno man, todos los feelings aparte de ver a ciri con sus primeros pasos de entrenamiento tas loco
Good but,,,,we need Sonya!
Miss Sonya Belousova. RIP, The Witcher soundtrack
This composer feels more european leaned and Sonya felt more Slavic leaned, i feel i just listenint to waltz in the first minute then theres that weird peak of the orchestra at the end of 1:57 minutes and it just goes louder from there till 2:40. That small section makes you feel like they are showing the landscape of a city getting closer then you get the 3:38 entrance to which it feel you are now inside the city rather than watching it from afar. I didn't exactly disliked it, i feel is a pretty good composition but feels i'm watching another show rather than the witcher. Like to me this feels like it would fit in a Wheel of Time setting type of story when they first arrive to the white tower for example. That said the ending of this track is beautiful and i do appreaciate the build up.
Slavic is not European??
@@indianiecworld I meant culture wise. XD
@@retiredguy5676 Are you serious?
@@indianiecworld If you really want an explanation in what i meant it was Slavic or to be more precise Balto Slavic of the Indo-European section of Europe, like when people talk europe most of the countries you imagine are Germany France, UK, Spain, Portugal, Italy. What i meant with it was Slavic culture differs greatly from the normal European culture thus the sense of the music is more leaned in the side of the "main" Europe rather the Indo-European section of it.
@@retiredguy5676 what kind of people talk about Europe in this terms? only ignorant western europeans or anglosaxons talk like that, pretending the eastern europe doesn't exist. Racist and idiotic assumption
Soundtrack in season 2 is cool, but it don't have that power from season 1. It's a pity they changed the compositor :(
😍😍😍😍😍
