House of the Dragon OST - Aegon's Coronation 

All the past conflicts were like a build up but now team Green has officially landed the first blow!

I'm not Team Green nor Team Black. I'm Team Ramin Djawadi

The transition from Alicent's theme into layers of Targaryen music, the royal fanfare, and even hints of Larys... what an incredible piece. Full of both triumph and accomplishment as well as tension and foreboding for what is to come.

The actor playing Aegon, Tom Glynn-Carney, has stated in an interview that he views Aegon as a much more complex beast than Joffrey and this scene is a testament to his statement. We see this boy go from a reluctant, irresponsible, imbecile prince to someone who wholeheartedly embraces his new position as the crown i.e power provided him what he had craved all along; acceptance, appreciation and love. That transition is beautifully conveyed by the incredible actor and this music! Thank you for putting it out here 💖

This is for sure a Team Green song since Alicent walked in that green dress in ep 5, amazing soundtrack. RD is killing it 👏

Aegon II is starting to become a more and more complex character. One minute he didn't want anything to do with the Iron Throne then the next he was like he's been waiting for that moment for 100 thousand years lol. This will make his character more interesting going into season 2 coz we won't be able to predict his moves.

I really hope this is the definitive Aegon theme, it's so fitting. These last two episodes have had such an impressive score.

Rhaenyra: ''do not think that you will hold us long. My leal lords will find me.'' Aegon: ''If they search the seven hells, mayhaps''

His entrance was the most epic scene of the episode.. tom Glyn was the perfect cast choice for king aegon the second.

Amazing how Ramin makes this theme sound hopeful like a hero's rise in power while at the same time sinister like an evil scheme being successfully done. A masterpiece as always, God of Music

A lot of themes (Alicent, King's arrival, Viserys) were put together during Aegon's coronation. What a wonderful mix by Ramin, and thank you for the recreation.

“A NEW KING TO LEAD US!!!” - Otto Hightower, hand of the king This line sends chills down my spine EVERY TIME!!!!

His outfit was absolutely stunning in this scene

Love this theme. Aegon’s fit is 🔥🔥🔥

Gotta admit, the Green Team is pretty intriguing with its complex characters.Count me in as a fan!

Sounds like Alicent theme and Targaryen them combined. Beautiful, chills. I have goosebumbs. How Green dare to be so epic. 💚

"The Crown of the Conqueror, passed down through generations!"

Tom absolutely killed it here! Hard to believe the only thing we've seen of argubaly the most important character of the show until now is them hammering in that he's a sexual deviant, ffs. There's so much more depth to Aegon and finally we get a tiny glimpse of it. King Aegon's two defining traits : depression and resentment. Depression ...the way he tells Aemond "let me find a ship and sail away" at that moment I can't help but feel bad for him. Resentment...when he asks his mother "do you love me". The childhood neglect, the burden of expectation being the king's firstborn son, the validation he always craved from his father and never got that shattered his self esteem, and finally the roar of the crowd serving to feel that void. Tom's acting during the coronation...the changing facial reactions and body language to the adulation of the crowd was unreal! Hoping to see them go in this direction for King Aegon in the next season!

URGE TO BEND THE KNEE INTENSIFIES

Team Green 100%

This theme is probably my favorite theme with Protector of the Realm being a close second

The sword crossing, the tapestry, proud Otto enjoying his life’s work, the veiled & somber Queen kissing his forehead, the Septons marking his forehead, the King bowing to the Seven as he is only accountable to god, everyone in turn bowing to the king. "All Hail His Grace...King of the Andals, the Rhoynar and the First Men"...finally justice done to the proclamation of a new Absolute Monarch in GoT. The detail of them saying "Aegon the King" right after so the smallfolk can understand. Perfection! It felt like an orthodox crowning ceremony from Tsarist Russia. The actor did an amazing job too.

Tom's portrayal of Aegon is so bewitching... The way I literally bent the knee for him after seeing his coronation

Theme so good, it almost turns you to the greens' side.

That replay button is gonna get so sick of me. Phenominal track!

There's just a hint of Stannis' theme in there which is always a welcome for me.

Long live the King! 💚

*"The child is a boy Aemma. I'm certain of it. I've never been more certain of anything. The dream. It was clearer than a memory. Our son was born wearing Aegon's iron crown. And I heard the sound of thundering hooves, splintering shields, and ringing swords, as the bells of the Grand Sept tolled. And I placed my heir upon the Iron Throne..."* That famous opening line from the house of the dragon trailer. Viserys was right all along. But it was destined to be the boy he refused to acknowledge sigh.

''I deserve to be loved!!... I just want to be loved.''' Aegon inner monologue.

This really gives me “light of the seven” vibes, so good!

Forget “here comes the bride” This will be the song I walk down the aisle for my wedding

Aegon II reminds a lot of book Tyrion in some ways both of them just want to feel loved and recognized, both have terrible behavior towards women, both have problems with alcohol, both have fathers that didn't love them and both fight bravely in battle despite not being as skilled as their warrior brothers.

This hit me harder then Robert hit Rhaegar

All hail Aegon second of his name

This is exactly what I logged onto RU-vid for just now, and you didn't disappoint. What a gorgeous, stirring piece. You are the best, Diego!

I don’t care what the internet says, I’m Team Green all the way. I find them way more interesting than Team Black.

Initially Aegon looked like such a one dimensional stupid character that amongst the greens all focus stayed on Aemond, but after this scene he became such an intriguing character and a lot of credit for that goes to the actor. His expressions alone established the fact that Aegon is going to be just as complex a character as Aemond, if not more.

Diego, i must say you are a part of the season 1 experience for me all in all.. watching the episodes then coming here to listen to these have been great. thank you again.

Ooh man WTF... this music is really made for kings 👑 Hail Aegon ..

All Hail King Aegon the Second!!! The True Heir to the Iron Throne!!!

Its like Alicents Green Dress theme but expanded upon, heavier and grand, but still proud and dangerous. I swear, the music makes me go team Green more and more 😅💚 I even felt a glimmer of sympathy for Aegon here. He is clearly fucked up by his fathers gross neglect on one side, and Alicents and Ottos ambitions for him on the other. Viserys really failed to show any attention and love to him or his siblings. You can tell that the crowd cheering is the only time he got any admiration in his life. He is a filthy little asshole, but he is no Joffrey. I think we might see some good changes now that he sees he could actually be respected as a King.

such an amazing sountrack! tom (aegon's actor) really did amazing this ep!

It annoys me that in the series the black fraction is shown “good”, although the books are very controversial... Even the scriptwriters' decision to ruin the coronation of Aegon and insert an absurd piece with Rhaenis and the Dragon... This was not in the original. The coronation of Aegon was solemn and insanely beautiful, in the end he saddled his dragon - the most beautiful in the kingdom.

Alas, the Dance of the Dragons shall Begun

Ramin Djawadi giving his best for Team Green 💚🥵

The greatest coronation scene of all time!

Totally team green, one thing i have learned from this amazing series is that tradition, though often ignored, takes precedent over everything.

I think out of all the music Ramin Djawadi has composed this has to be my favorite. Better even than the Light of the Seven or the Rains of Castamere.

Just watched the episode and came directly here to listen to this Master piece! What an absolutely amazing episode... And this music made it all the better

My favorite soundtrack this season. Love the Greens

Showrunners : How powerful can you compose ? Ramin Djawadi : Yes.

This actually slaps so hard. Added 5 more horse power to my car.

This theme is realy badass

Long live King Aegon!

Sunfire is hungry 😂😂

This scene and the music were surreal

The Hightower Theme rendition is sick

The rightful king of Westeros 😍😍😍

💚Aegon Targaryen sits the Iron Throne. He wears the Conqueror's crown, wields the Conqueror's sword, has the Conqueror's name. He was anointed by a septon of the Faith before the eyes of thousands. Every symbol of legitimacy belongs to him.💚

this song is addicting oh my god

"It's hard to put a leash on a dog, once you've put a crown on its head" Tyrion Lannister

Our King

A perfect theme for a king 👑

the true rightful King 👑🗡️💚

The sword crossing, the tapestry, proud Otto enjoying his life’s work, the veiled & somber Queen kissing his forehead, the Septons marking his forehead,.. "All Hail His Grace...King of the Andals, the Rhoynar and the First Men"...finally justice done to the proclamation of a new Absolute Monarch in GoT. I was blown away by the details in the coronation. It felt like watching Nicholas II being crowned in an Orthodox ceremony with all the hollow pomp & circumstance of a rotting system. It's what I'd always envisioned from a GoT coronation. Tom Glynn-Carney was terrific in bringing out Aegon's fear, hesitation, pride & euphoria all at once. I'm glad they kept the much despised Criston putting the Conqueror's crown on Aegon II's head. The Kingmaker is born! What the show's doing really well is the details, down to splitting the treasury or locking up servants. Usually the passionate debates, the treachery, the heartbreak are glossed over & we only see the regime change as "fait accompli". This bring to life the mechanism that historically goes behind a coup, which I assume is as emotionally taxing for the people seizing power. That's why I like agonized & conflicted Alicent more than her steadfast source counterpart. It feels more flesh & blood. She vacillates but her messianic fear for her children fates her to make a cursed gamble.

okay, Ramin is a genius, I absolutely love the idea that this starts with Alicent's theme, hinting that it was her all along who've planted the seed of power in her son, quiet melody yet powerful with very loud intentions, and then slowly transitions into Targ theme hinting at how Aegon wholeheartedly embraces his new position, acceptance from the crowd and this temporary "love" that he seeks and slowly turns into madness, gods really flip the coin and Aegon is on the mad side.

True king!! 💚💚💚

Ramin Djawadi was, is, and will be the best. Glad to be alive when this incredible man composes such masterpieces

Hans zimmer is shaking after listening to this. Greatest ever soundtrack.

The chills... One of the most epic soundtracks ever. What a crowning and a ceremony. The only thing I didn't understand was where Rhaenys got that dragon to barge in and interrupt xD Anyways awesome scene. If season 2 keeps up the same pace and consistency as season 1 did it will be one of the most legendary shows ever. Can't wait. It's already in the history books.

I don't care what anyone says I love Aegon II, the elder, the usurper, the Chad of his name. The golden king! The crispy king 👑 dude never backed down from a single fight in his life he was a dragon unlike Aegon the turd

Team Green

Great king

Let the dance begins 💚🖤🐉🔥

I love this song

Our rightful king. The King That Was Promised.

The best soundtrack. All hail Argon the second. Team green 🐉 all the way even though we'd know what the ending would be lol

All hail King Aegon of House Targaryen!!! Second of his name, King of the Andals, Rhoynar and the First men, Lord of the Seven kingdoms 💚

Without the appearance of Rhaenys, the scene would have been much better

Hail King Aegon Second of his name

I like how Aegon doesn’t have the Targaryen leitmotif but it’s more of a hightower with a twist of Targaryen instrument like drums

The fact that it’s a darker version of the House Hightower Theme…

Certified banger.

It is your great honour and privilege... With this music.....

My king

The true heir to the iron throne 💚

I loved this episode's soundtrack

A new day for our city, A new dat for our realm, A new king to lead us!

So powerful and poignant!🔥 🛐🔥

THE TRUE KING 💚💚💚

At first I was annoyed at the design of the crown. But seeing it in its full glory. Just one single jewel in the center. What a menacing piece of art.

I actually enjoyed this scene more than the Viserys one. More ominous I guess.

This song “Interests of the Realm” from House of the Dragon’s soundtrack is amazing - it’s both beautiful & powerful. It’s a perfect choice for Aegon II’s coronation scene as it gives you chills. One of the best Ramin has produced in either show. It’s my favorite along with “Sealed in Fire & Blood” which is played at end of Ep7. It’s the music played when Daemon is talking to Ser Qarl at the marina & during the talk between Daemon & Rhaenyra where she professes that she will not be a tyrant & rule though fears. It’s just as beautiful & has a tone that gives a sense of foreboding & dread. Ramin really is a genius & his music enhances the atmosphere of scenes which also elicit’s a range of emotions from the viewer.

Listening to this an knowing the dance has begun in earnest... Chilling

This is fire

Team green. Fucking attractive.

I got shivers from THE FIRST SECOND! I love your videos sooo much!

I was waiting for this!!

All hail His Grace, King Aegon of House Targaryen, the Second of his Name, King of the Andals, the Rhoynar, and the First Men, Lord of the Seven Kingdoms, and Protector of the Realm. And all hail, Her Grace, Queen Helaena of House Targaryen, the sister and wife of His Grace King Aegon II, the Queen Consort of the Seven Kingdoms, and the mother of his children.

DIOS ES QUE AEGON EN ESA ESCENA 😭💚
