Dungeons & Dragons is making the jump from your tabletop to your turntable.
In celebration of the classic roleplaying game’s 50th anniversary, Hasbro’s Wizards of the Coast and acclaimed composer Michael Gatt are releasing a new album that will immerse listeners in the enchanting adventures of the game. Dungeons & Dragons — Bardic Inspiration: A Musical Journey through the Forgotten Realms will be available this fall digitally and on pressed vinyl, making it the perfect collector’s item to commemorate five decades of this iconic tabletop game.
Whether you are a Rogue or a Warlock, everyone can join the adventuring party while listening to this album. Dungeons & Dragons — Bardic Inspiration: A Musical Journey through the Forgotten Realms draws listeners into a mystical world of heroes, villains, cities, and dragons. Each of the 12 original tracks on the album is inspired by locations in the famous Forgotten Realms. Listeners travel through the realm with the melodies and discover the rich storytelling that has defined D&D for half a century. Inspired by his own real-life odyssey, composer Michael Gatt uses unexpected instruments, otherworldly textures, and even a 40-person choir to give the record a unique spellbinding sound worthy of the momentous occasion.
The collectible vinyl album also contains new artwork, so fans of the game can show off their conquests on both their speakers and their walls!Â
Dungeons & Dragons — Bardic Inspiration: A Musical Journey through the Forgotten Realms will be available on double vinyl ($49.99), as well as in Dolby Atmos and digitally this fall.
