Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 - better than a movie score? | Lumière Reaction | Vocal Coach Analysis

Подробнее о видео

This video provides an educational and emotional breakdown of “Lumière”, a stunning piece from the French video game Clair Obscur: Expedition 33. After falling in love with Alicia, I had to explore more of this hauntingly beautiful soundtrack and so many of you in the comments recommended Lumière. I’m not a gamer, but this score has completely drawn me in. It rivals some of the best cinematic and classical compositions I’ve ever heard.

As a vocal coach, I break down what makes this track so unforgettable, from its ethereal vocals to its baroque-inspired orchestration, counterpoint, and impressionist textures. It’s not just music, it’s a living, breathing art piece that blends classical vocal technique with emotional modern game scoring.

🎙️ In this video you will learn:
🎻 Vocal Placement & Vibrato: Baroque-style lightness and minimal vibrato for a floaty, emotional tone.
🎨 French-Style Phrasing: Why her delivery feels like painting with sound like a Monet in motion.
🎼 Counterpoint & Instrumental Interplay: The use of counter melodies and classical structure that give this track its rich, layered feel.
🧠 Resonance & Tone Shape: How vocal placement through the nasal passages creates a distinctively French vocal color.
🎮 Game Soundtracks as Art: Why game music like this is no longer just background—it's storytelling, atmosphere, and emotion rolled into one.

💥 For Fans Of:
If you love music from games like Ori and the Blind Forest, NieR: Automata, Hollow Knight, or film composers like Alexandre Desplat, Joe Hisaishi, or Claude Debussy—you’ll be completely captivated by Clair Obscur's Lumière.

💬 Is there another song from Clair Obscur or another game you think I should dive into? I’m loving this whole genre and would love to hear your favorites in the comments.
