Following events and action from the original Killzone for PlayStation 2, two years after the Helghast assault on Vekta, the ISA is taking the fight to the enemy's home world of Helghan. The ISA goal is direct: capture the Helghast leader, Emperor Visari, and bring the Helghast war machine to a halt.
Notes:
After recording the Helghast March in Moscow with the Moscow Symphony and Chorus as a demo and promotion for the game a year earlier, I was fortunate to be offered the opportunity to record the rest of the music in Prague with the Prague Philharmonic. It was only the second time in my career that I had ever worked with a live orchestra and wanted to make every second count!
Killzone 1's story line features tales of deceit, uneasy partnerships, questionable ethics and lost romance, which seem out of place in a first person shooter. But it was a joy and a challenge to underscore all these different tangents and it resulted in an interesting 40 minute score.
