This production is part of one or more concert series.
As early as in the infancy of home computers and game consoles in the 1980s, music started to evolve into an important part of the best loved games. Titles such as Super Mario Bros, Zelda, and many others have left indelible impressions in many a gamer. Today’s game composers, like Jeremy Soule and Austin Wintory do, unlike their predecessors, have unlimited opportunities to release their creativity and tell a story with music in a way that is unique for the game medium. Discover new worlds, or remember old favourites with the Swedish Radio Symphony Orchestra, all of Sweden’s symphony orchestra!
