Adrian, Audrea, Aedan, Mark, Shaun and myself just attended the last performance of Play!, at the Esplanade Concert Hall. A part of the Singapore Arts Festival, I believe that this performance was the most popular of all. I have also heard that all 3 Play! performances were totally sold out, the only sold out performances in the Arts Festival this year.
The entire experience was exquisite. The music arrangements were excellent, the selection of songs were spot on, and hearing those tunes played by a full orchestra was mind-blowing.
Games that were featured included: Super Mario Brothers, Lost Odyssey, Blue Dragon, Shenmue, Metal Gear Solid, Final Fantasy (VI & VII), Halo, Castlevania, Chrono Trigger, Oblivion, World of Warcraft and Zelda. If any of those names are familar to you, then you did yourself a dis-service by not going to this awesome performance.
And even if you don't know the musical scores, the experience would still be extremely satisfying. The music from video games are true works of art, and is an enjoyable aural experience. It was an excellent performance all round, and for geeks, just a little bit more extra special.
