Heavy Rain Composer Dies

Normand Corbeil, who was working on the music for Beyond: Two Souls, lost his battle with pancreatic cancer.

Normand Corbeil, composer of the music for Heavy Rain, Fahrenheit and Beyond: Two Souls, has died of pancreatic cancer. He was 56 years old.

His son broke the news on a cancer support website. Corbeil, whose achievements included many television and movie projects, won a BAFTA award for his work on Heavy Rain. In an interview when the game was released, Corbeil said he wasn’t very good at playing Heavy Rain, but admired it greatly.

“Everyday of your life be ready to catch the idea that will come to you and writing down,” said Corbeil. “It is a hard job. Just work and rework and rework. This is for me the process. But at the same time it is a privilege to be able to make your living with what you love to do.”

It’s not clear at this time whether Corbeil was able to finish his work on Beyond: Two Souls.
