Here’s a quick take on the main titles music from “Home Alone”. The sheet music is included below!

Thrilled to share the announcement of the official Celeste Piano Collections! I have been brought on to create the final engraved sheet music for the book! Looking forward to it!
Ori and the Blind Forest performed by WDR Funkhausorchester and Choir
The orchestra and choir moments before the start of "Ori".
In August I had the extreme privilege of attending SoundTrack_Cologne in Germany, where the WDR Funkhausorchesterand WDR Rundfunkchor performed my arrangement of Gareth Coker's music from "Ori and the Blind Forest".
Not only was the concert itself fantastic in the selection of games represented—where many of the composers were in attendance—but the musicians did such an excellent job, led by the wonderfully caring and energetic Evan Christ. And if that wasn’t enough, the featured pianist was Benyamin Nuss who also expertly performed works for solo piano.
You can find Ori the Game at 25:10 on part 2, but I recommend the entire concert!

Suteki Da Ne (handwritten score video)
🎵 Suteki Da Ne arranged for Materia Collective's SPIRA album, performed by Videri String Quartet, originally composed by Nobuo Uematsu.
I acquired a scanner, so now the handwritten score (and it's mistakes) can be seen in HD✨
Video game music is a wonderful gateway to classical
Check out a recent article about the comparison between video game music and 'classical' music over on Laced Records blog!
I discussed Final Fantasy Tactics as it relates to Prokofiev, and Saga Frontier II as it relates to John Adams.
The article features contributions composers Jessica Curry, Austin Wintory and Lloyd Coleman, podcaster Emily Reese, and the Videri String Quartet.
