Video Games Live

Video Games Live is a concert series created by the video game composers Tommy Tallarico and Jack Wall in 2002, which brings the world of video games to life with a live orchestra performing the most memorable and exciting pieces from a vast array of beloved game soundtracks. The project combines the energy and excitement of a rock concert with the power and emotion of a symphony orchestra, all while immersing the audience in a spectacular synchronization of cutting-edge visuals, lighting, special effects, and interactive segments. Video Games Live showcases music from the most popular video games performed by top orchestras and choirs across the world, bridging the gap between the concert experience and the video game industry, and presenting a whole new art form for the enjoyment of fans of all generations.

Over the years, Video Games Live has grown immensely in popularity, releasing several albums, such as “Level 1” through “Level 6,” that capture the essence of their dynamic performances. Their albums frequently explore specific areas of game music, like the "Zelda Majora's Mask Piano Album" which delves into the rich music of the Nintendo classic, or "Through Time and Space: Chrono Piano Album,” that offers a piano-driven journey through the Chrono series' scores. Video Games Live continues to innovate within the live concert space, as seen with individual track releases like “Pokémon Theme (TheFatRat Remix) [feat. Jason Paige],” and the fancifully arranged "Donkey Kong Country: Piano + Player 2." This act remains a celebration of the gaming community's cultural impact and the epic and diverse music that has become an integral part of the gaming experience.
