  • Hey friends! So recently we posted a video of a little side project arrangement, In between recording video game tunes the gang and I decided to have some fun and record an up-tempo swing arrangement of Beethoven's classic 3rd movement from the seminal "Moonlight Sonata"!
    Originally seen in this video:
    • Moonlight Sonata 3rd m...
    Here's a follow along score video for a behind the musical scenes look of whats going on under the hood (so to speak) of the arrangement, and a link to purchase the full score and parts for your own arranging/composing score study!
    WARNING This arrangement is EXTREMELY difficult to play live for most members of the orchestra, and so I can't in good faith recommend that you attempt to play it live with your own band, but I can't stop you from trying, PERFORM AT YOUR OWN RISK! Here's a link:

    Wow, they did my absolute favorite classical piece (specifically the 3rd movement). I play this _all the time_ in Space Station 13, so it technically counts as videogame music, for anyone worried about that. (The piece perfectly fits with the pure chaos of a late SS13 round where the station is actively overrun by blobs, traitors, nukies, and cultists.)

    I vote this one "Highest Possibility of Being in a Ymfah Video Soon". Jokes aside, this has always been my favorite Beethoven song and to see it dressed up to the nines like this is truly spectacular. whatever you did to the beat starting at 2:34 is especially awesome, I love that kinda stuff! Also this still counts as video game music since MS 3rd movement played in one of the last levels of Earthworm Jim 2.

    Whatever you do, 8BBB, you turn it to gold; you have that magic touch. (The same is also true of Carlos Eiene, or insaneintherainmusic; you and him are now my two favorite performers, and your music really helped me cope with the pandemic.)
    When it comes to music, I therefore wish thank you, 8BBB, Carlos, the J-Music Ensemble, and all others associated thereof (and on a separate note, Scott Bradlee's Postmodern Jukebox, or PMJ; check them out if you don't know them; they're amazing) for restoring my faith in humanity.

Also, what do you think your best piece for clarinet would be? I am considering senior solos, and I thought that maybe an 8BBB arrangement could work for mine. Thank you for your time.
