PBL 0 Posted June 26, 2003 Share Posted June 26, 2003 All Zelda's game music was written by Koji Kondo (who's also the composer of Mario's music) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magnus 0 Posted June 26, 2003 Share Posted June 26, 2003 All Zelda's game music was written by Koji Kondo (who's also the composer of Mario's music)I've always wondered who did the Mario music! I really didn't think Koji did it anyway. The japanese VG-composers are masters, too bad they don't do some filmscores as well :-/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scissorhands 16 Posted June 26, 2003 Share Posted June 26, 2003 Czech Shymphonic Orchestra will also perform in Leipzig the scores of Headhunter and its sequel, composed by Richard Jacques (composer of Jet Set Radio Future too).Oh, Kradia, Shenmue's theme, with those chinese fiddle, is one of the most beautiful themes i've ever heard.

Morn 8 Posted July 1, 2003 Share Posted July 1, 2003 Medal of Honor, Mafia, neat. I'm afraid I don't know many of the other games or their music. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kradia 1 Posted July 2, 2003 Author Share Posted July 2, 2003 UPDATE: Concert Program is up!It looks like you're getting Kondo's Zelda too. (........you lucky.....bastards...)http://www.leipziger-messe.de/gc/gamesmusic_eng.shtml :cry: i want to go......coughanybody going?coughHey Scissorhands, the best track on that Orchestra cd was Track 5, Waves in a morning Haze. It's so beautiful.....it reminds me of Across the Stars when I hear it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marian Schedenig 8,211 Posted July 2, 2003 Share Posted July 2, 2003 Wow, they're even playing Hülsbeck. Though I do wonder if those old synth scores by him sound right as orchestral adaptions.Marian - who probably won't be there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hale-Bopp 0 Posted July 6, 2003 Share Posted July 6, 2003 oh, man! I'd do anything to go to this concert!...i have to sit and weep because E3 didn't have their concert this year cuz they didn't feel fully prepared, BUT it's supposedly gonna be worth the wait for the 2004 concert due to have some major additions/upgrades (not really talked about anywhere that I know of) for next year. CAN'T WAIT! Hope you guys enjoy the concert in Europe. It should be a lot of fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laserschwert 475 Posted July 8, 2003 Share Posted July 8, 2003 Though I am from Germany, I'm not going to that concert (I wish I had time and it wouldn't be so far away).Hopefully there will be a good recording of the whole thing... I doubt it, but I WISH it would happen... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hale-Bopp 0 Posted July 8, 2003 Share Posted July 8, 2003 I know that next year when E3 has their big video game orchestral concert, they're going to immediately package together a DVD of the performance with behind the scenes extras and a CD release as well as a Pay-Per-View special so anyone in the world can watch it live!What I'm thinking is that I'd be surprised if they didn't at least record the Germany concert for some kind of CD release in the future. They'd almost be foolish not to, cuz I'd buy it, wouldn't you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
