So I couldn't find the old gaming music thread to look around in (or maybe I'm misremembering the biggest gaming moment thread), but our local symphony conductor does a lot of "pop" concerts in addition to the classics and the normal visiting artist/guest conductor concerts. He hasn't done anything with video games before, but he's ready to get away from movies for a little bit and try something different to bring in the younger/non-traditional crowds. So I'm working on a list as a proposal for a future concert. I'm a RPG player at heart, but I wanted to make so I brought a little bit of everything to the table.
So if you could, what songs from your video game glory days would you want to hear played live? Looking at a traditional symphonic orchestra with the possibility for assisting instruments / choir. So nothing that can't be reproduced without the aid of a computer.
I personally would have something like this:
1. FF7 Opening Theme/Bombing Run
2. FF7 Aeris' Theme
3. FF7 One Winged Angel
4. FF8 Liberi Fatali
5. FF8 Dance with the Balamb Fish / Waltz to the Moon
6. FF8 Ending Theme
7. FFX Hymn of the Faith - Shiva / FF Prelude
4,4,7,3,3,13,3 + 8, 2, 2 ~ 45-50 minutes
Intermission
LoZ:Link to the Past - Main Theme / WW - Main Theme
Dragon Age: Origins - Main Theme / Leliana's Song
Mass Effect 3: Earth / Defeat / The Fleets Arrive
TES: Morrowind/Oblivion Theme / Skyrim - Dragonborn
Everquest - Riverale or Kelethin or Main Theme
Goldeneye N64 - Runway / Main Menu / James Bond Theme
Tetris - A Type
Super Mario Brothers
2,3,2,3,2,2,7,2,3 + 2,2,5 ~ 20-30 minutes
Couldn't think of anything with a real rock vibe to accompany CnC's Hell March to justify bringing it in. Not exactly happy with my first attempt at the second half, but it was what came to mind first. What would you go for?
