A live performance for Seattle’s Marrowstone in the City program. The music was arranged by the genius Lennart Jansson (Link) and Gen Kim (myself as Ash Ketchum). I choreographed all the extra bits behind us as we play as well as sang the Halo theme, of course. The Tetris bit is a tribute to the old a capella group that did game themes. Lennart is playing an ocarina there, and I’m drumming the top of my violin. Hope you enjoy.

MP3 can be downloaded here:

My personal favorite bit of music is at 3:48. Kirby FTW.

Go ahead and subscribe if you enjoy. I’ll be sure to upload my future film school projects here, starting with my Pokemon/24 mashup radio drama. You read that right.

Order of performance:
The Legend of Zelda
Pokemon
Halo
Tetris
Kirby
Pong
Super Mario Bros.
Super Mario World

1st Violin – Koyo Kim (Mario)

    Someone else may have mentioned this but I think you’re missing a sign. Right after the Super Mario Brothers should have been Super Mario World instead of Game Over. Game Over was the last one.
