Razgriz | Ace Combat 5: The Unsung War | WMGSO's Fall 2023 Concert

Razgriz - Ace Combat 5: The Unsung War
By: Keiki Kobayashi
Arr. David Crisler
In the world of Ace Combat 5: The Unsung War, the Razgriz is a well-known fairytale character that is said to appear in times of great change, arriving first as a demon and bringing destruction to the world. Upon defeat, it rests for a long time, and when it appears again, it is reborn as a great hero.
The world is still reeling from a war 15 years ago in which the nearly defeated aggressor Belka set off nuclear strikes on their own soil as a defensive measure. In the present, war breaks out among two world powers, and the player and their squadron fly to their country’s defense. As the war stalls out, they discover a Belkan conspiracy that started the war in an attempt to consume their old enemies. When the player’s squadron goes rogue in an effort to stop the conspirators and prevent further destruction, they take the name Razgriz Squadron, representing the heroic side of the Razgriz myth.
Originally composed as a soundtrack exclusive, Razgriz is based on the main theme of Ace Combat 5. A somber beginning is overtaken by heroic statements of the Razgriz theme, giving way to a conflicted, but glorious, conclusion.
This piece was performed at Adventure & Apocalypse, WMGSO's Full Ensemble Fall 2023 Concert at the Rachel M Schlesinger Center.
