As a Chinese this soundtrack brings me to tears. Ming China theme comes from Kun-Qu(昆曲), one of the oldest form of Chinese operas originated in Ming China. Unlike most civilization's theme from religious or historical perspective , the music tells a Chinese version of Romeo-Juliet romantic story named 'Peony Pavilion' (牡丹亭), which is exactly composed by a late Ming China officer Tang Xianzu (汤显祖). This fragment You-Yuan Jing-Meng (游园 惊梦, wandering in garden and dreaming ) actually has lyrics, saying the heroine Du Liniang (杜丽娘), a noble girl, wandering in garden and enjoying the scenery , but actually dreaming of her future lover secretly. Love is common language of human kind, thank you Geoff and all Chinese artists for the marvelous music!
As much as I loved civ6's orchestral renditions of chinese music, it is nice to hear more authentic Chinese instruments used in civ 7 so far in both eras china can be picked.
I realized that the erhu was the main instrument for this song, it has a very distinct sound over other string instruments. Definetly sounds more authentic compared to china in civ6 esp in the industrial in civ6 going orchestra after that point and losing all the Chinese instruments.
@@danmiy12 If I must reply, I believe they cut Erhu out because they wanted a more indigenously Chinese instrument in their Civ 6 theme. IIRC, Erhu was adapted from the northern nomadic tribes (I wanna say the Mongols, but I'm not sure).
If Civ can put Confucius as a leader, I really hope they put can Zheng He as the Ming leader. He's the embodiment of "exploration", perfect for the Exploration Age
They did mention him in the developer showcase, no confirmation he's playable but I think they mention Ming having bonuses related to the treasure ship mechanics because of him. i agree he would be a perfect leader pick, though
I cannot put into words how extraordinary Civ VII's soundtrack has been so far, and we're still 3 months away from the game's release. Thank you so much, everyone at Firaxis and everyone you collaborated with, to make this a reality.
Not a huge fan of Civ 6's themes for China, but so far both Han and Ming themes are bangers. Looking forward to seeing what more themes they have in store for us!
I think one of the things i was most excited for in civ 7 is that Geoff Knorr is making the soundtrack. Civ 6 soundtrack in my opinion is a masterpiece that other civ games couldnt quite reach but got close. Regardless, his work really sets the vibe and sounds amazing. My civ music playlist i use to fall asleep is gonna be packed with another 40 tracks at least!
And their concepts are so different! Civ6 is all about music progression from a same basic melody, adding more layers but westernizing a little in the end. Civ7 is all about authentic music from each civ, showing the progress by changing the civ throughout the game. Geoff Knorr can do both so well!
While I'm not sold into Civ7 or what it offers new (besides not liking the Characters aesthetic), the Soundtrack has me by the ears through and through
O único jogo do tipo que de fato preza pela historicidade dos povos em todos os aspectos, até nas trilhas sonoras, que geralmente em outros jogos são genéricas e hollywoodianas. Minhas favoritas até então são: 1: Egito; 2: Mongólia; 3: China Ming;
@@GrossDeutsche15 For those not really acquainted to the taste, it's going to get real messy when you have Tang, Korean, and Japanese court music in the same album...
(Un?)fortunately, the modern era Chinese is the Qing. I'm going to really look forward to how they're going to split Ming and Qing music since they're technically the same system...

Very demure, very merciful.
I like that these are being released. I'm getting a lot of enjoyment out of them.
The CIV VII soundtrack is almost reason enough to buy the game at this point.
This is a VERY nice re-take on Youyuan-Jingmeng from The Peony Pavilion. Nothing's more iconic of Ming than Kunqu opera.
Chinese music is the best on the planet. It's so otherworldly and easy on the ears.
Man j wish they made an hour long video, genuinely would listen while I work or do hw

Are these going to be added to spotify?
Most probably
aaa kinda reminiscent of Wu Zetian's peace theme from Civ V ♥️.

Great music...loved the phoenix symbol too
release when?

Love the music, but something is wrong with the mountain in the picture…
In China, it is impossible to build the Great Wall on such steep mountains😂
There are many steep mountain peaks in Zhangjiajie, but it is impossible to have the Great Wall on these mountains
no Tang?
Maybe DLC as a militarized version of Chinese?
The music in the Tang Dynasty was more biased towards the Hu barbarians, which is what you europeans so-called germans and slavs

waiting for modern China
But... erhu hadnot yet appeared in the Ming Dynasty
In fact, the erhu has existed in China since the Tang Dynasty, which is more than 500 years earlier than the Ming Dynasty😊

Can we get Mao?
When the Song dynasty?
the style of the Song Dynasty was similar to the Tang Dynasty.
