Runar Lundvall
I'm a composer from Norway, deeply inspired by the sound of winter, pine forests, and the rich traditions of Norwegian folk music—especially the haunting beauty of the Hardanger fiddle.
I write fantasy music in the spirit of composers like Jeremy Soule, Howard Shore, and Harry Gregson-Williams, blending orchestral storytelling with Nordic roots. On YouTube, I share Divisimate walkthroughs, orchestration tutorials, and behind-the-scenes looks into my creative process.
