Kate's conversation with Gareth
Just like the game's hero Fenyx, Gareth had his own challeges to overcome, including creating music for an open-world game in which the player can walk, fly or ride a horse to get from one area of the Golden Isle to another. This involved writing cues that could instantly adapt to different speeds, while maintaining the same unique sound indentity for each of the gods' areas.
Getting the instruments exactly right put Gareth on a quest to acquire traditional ancient Greek instruments, which he finally tracked down to one of Greece's only remaining luthiers who crafts lyres just as they were made in ancient times. Gareth commssioned three lyres, as well as an aulos, which was played by wind virtuoso Kristin Naigus.
