It's always fantastic when music from games get shown off to another audience. There are so many pieces that would go well in a modern day symphony and to finally see it happen is amazing
Agreed, maybe except w the modern day symphony part, but not bc this piece is bad. VGM music going under appreciated is such a shame when fantastic compositions like this exist, despite not being post-tonal
Game music absolutely destroys Hollywood music becuase gaming hasn't been taken over by the droning Han Zimmer rip offs with no melodies or hooks yet that have completely taken over film Elden Ring, Cyberpunk 2077, Hades, Doom, what films in the last decade have scores even close to those games?
@@Teeheehee093Have to add emphasis that Doom and Doom Eternal have insane sound tracks. Its such a well crafted game that the music just flows with the combat. I love it!
:" I am Malenia, blade of Miquella and I have never known defeat" :" And I am a Tarnished of no renown, and all I have ever known was defeat" An immoveable object meets an unstoppable force.....
Yea, the reason the main theme was a bit underwhelming is probably because FromSoft added some post-recording effects, that an orchestra can't replicate
@@moomooman_Are you illiterate? They weren’t trying to be correct. It was kinda a joke that they pretend to say that in Malenia’s quote. Like changing the quote up to show that the orchestra did a great job.
At the very least, their musicians seems to be in general very brave and bold to mix and match wide ranges of genre of music together, and sometimes even use those fusion of music for games that you wouldn't expect to have. I mean, one example would be the Gran Turismo series, where I think most people outside of Japan wouldn't have thought jazz would fit a racing game so well that it literally turned into something magical.
I consider this theme to be one of Kitamura's major musical achievements, along with Abyss Watchers and Lady Maria. This will be extremely difficult to implement
I've got to admit when the second part of the Malenia theme started I started shaking because I thought I was going to the second phase of the fight again 😅 It is such an iconic theme of the game, probably one that we heard more than what we would have liked 😅 It's really amazing to see these music peaces get played in a concert by a National Symphony Orcestra. For us, who know this piece of music from the game it just strengthens the felling that Elden Ring does not have just amazing visual and game design, but also amazing music that is worthy of playing in a big concert like this. I hope game music will spread more and more and more people can get to know the amazing music games has to offer.
Fantastic performance. The Danish National Symphony Orchestra is top notch, always delivering beyond its public's expectations. Bravo for all of the individually talented musicians and choir singers that make possible this amazing soundtrack rendition to be spread to a wider audience.
The transition into the Melania theme… just immediately conjures up that “holy fuck” image at the opening of the fight when she walks toward you with blade extended
This genuinely gave me goosebumps. Absolutely INCREDIBLE. Malenia, Blade of Miquella would be so proud. I'm so jealous of the people who got to see this live.
@@gencraigz recency bias and all that but holy shit man it was great. incredible. also, they did not perform the entire soundtrack. I was led to believe that they would but they didn't. Even so, I still enjoyed it a lot because they played the most hype tracks.
Wait, you were able to visit the one in france? Wow.. could you maybe give a list of the pieces they performed? And was it better than this performance? @@imannam
I am Tarnished, blade of the Player. And I have always known defeat. Phase 2: Wait. The Mimic teat flowers once more. You will witness true easy mode. Now get rekt.
What an Orchestra performance Masterpiece of the Elden Ring game music theme and Milenia, Blade of Miquella. The Devs of FromSoftware Inc. and composers Tsukasa Saitoh/Yuka Kitamura should be proud. This is how it was meant to be played and live. I would have done anything to see this live. I absolutely love Elden Ring! A masterpiece of a game and a game like no other. 10/10 hands down. Now i wish for you to play "Erdtree Knights" AND "Final Battle". Thank you, Danish National Symphony Orchestra. Exceptional Performance. Loved the 3 High Elf girls singing in the Choir 3:36
Ah the intro theme and the full Malenia OST, that was beautifully done, all that was missing was 300 death screens and a loop of "I am Malenia, blade of Miquella..." voice over.
Awesome performance! 💝 I wonder how many people in the orchestra and from the choir are actually gamers themselves and even played Elden Ring!? 🤩 It's so good to see gaming soundtracks getting more and more recognized and performed, so more people get introduced into classical music. 😍
This is epic, and so interesting to hear this music in a different version from the original. Thanks! I hope to hear other pieces from the soulsborne games in the future. They start with the game intro music from the main menu (just called Elden Ring), then transition to the Malenia phase 1 music at 1:27 and finally to the phase 2 music at 3:03
@@aryaeliadel3094 I would agree, if it wasn't for a couple of things: First, this version has the quiet intro with the harp, and the sliding strings, which is not in the final battle track, and secondly, the choir part in the final battle is not the same as what they are doing here: The final battle choir only has notes on the first and second beats of each bar, whereas this version has notes on all 4 beats. And I just now put on my headphones and listened to the original Elden Ring track, and I think the choir part is actually there. It's just mixed waaaay quieter than in this version. It gets a lot more audible a little later in the track.
@@aryaeliadel3094 I am not sure you are mistaken... I agree with you, that this version sounds quite different from the original Elden Ring track, with the choir being SO much more prominent here. And also from what I think I can hear of the choir on the original Elden Ring track, they are singing exactly the same thing as on the Final Battle track, which is still not what they are singing in this version. So in the end, the best I can tell, is that this version sounds like a kind of weird mix between the Elden Ring track and the Final Battle track 😅
Movies soundtracks without images are double exciting, audience must use fantasy and become movie directors on their own, I trully love this gorgeous game to play, you are doing a great job indeed, happy winter holidays in Denmark ❤🎉❤
I died ten times listening to this
Wow you must be good then

People say “I can hear this image” but when they played Malenia’s phase change I thought “I can see this sound”
"You will witness true horror. Now, rot!"
I love when music is able to convey images to me.

Fromsoftware needs to go on tour with an orchestra, just go around playing the songs from the games. That would be amazing to hear these pieces live.
Id pay upwards of 100 bucks tbh

The Japanese really are the current kings of orchestral themes.
And video game music in general IMO. Even back in the 90s their soundtrack for Nintendo games are very memorable and fitting.
Remembering Skyward Sword Ballad of the godess
Yes, they are
At the very least, their musicians seems to be in general very brave and bold to mix and match wide ranges of genre of music together, and sometimes even use those fusion of music for games that you wouldn't expect to have.

Yoko Shimomura and Masayoshi Soken are proof of this.
