Real talk: I both teared up and got goosebumps during the transition to the faster part of the title screen track. This is DELIGHTFUL!!! And it does my soul good to know serious musicians took time to do creative takes on this music. So good!!! Thank you!

So, I wonder how many of these musicians actually grew up in the late 80s & early 90s playing Mega Man 2 & 3 as kids?! If so it must be an epic experience for them playing this live in front of a crowd!
I discovered Megaman very late. Never played it until he was announced for Smash Bros 4. Tried 2 in VC and now playing the entire Legacy Collections. Even without childhood nostalgia I realize these games have the best soundtrack in the videogames industry. It's just that good, and the games are incredibly fun for being from the 8-bit era.
That’s crazy we almost have the same story. Mega Mans reveal trailer looked cool as shit and I wanted to try his games out so I tried megaman 2 on the game boy from virtual console, and then eventually the first legacy collection on 3DS now I am a huge fan of the series and its soundtracks and it rocks
I like to go against every boss in every mega man with just the buster (including X, aside from the PS2 games because I really haven't played much of those except a tiny bit of MMX7)
Haha music alone - hasn't put a smile on my face that much for ages. Incredible to think now I'm familiar with most of the songs for playing original Game Boy version of Megaman 3 at the back of my parents' car - now havin' a walk outside what... around 20-25 years later hearing the same themes on Internet treated as great pieces of instrumental music making me very happy during pretty mediocre day. Life is full of surprises.
MM3 is the one OST that I can hum the entirety of without hearing it. I used to think that was because MM3 was the only Mega Man game I owned as a kid, but the more I hear from people in the community, the more I realize I was just lucky enough to have been able to grow up with the best of the series.
Megaman es uno de mis juegos favoritos, de Nintendo y Súper Nintendo, las melodías son fabulosas, y en esta presentación con la orquesta es simplemente algo increíble, diría algo mágico, me trae hermosos recuerdos de mi época de juventud. Muchas gracias por el vídeo.
For some reason, the one added extra note in Dr. Wily’s theme causes tears to flow. And my heart to ache. I’ve listened to it several times and it never fails. In case you’re curious, it’s at 7:36
Gonna be honest here, I cried during the intro section. Mega man will always have such a special place in my heart. Edit: I love the fact that you can tell the director is a Mega man fan and is enjoying himself so much lol
Mega Man was an important part of my late childhood and early years, and listening to this was like a stream of good memories coming back. Thanks for uploading this! (: BTW, Spark Man Stage reminds me of the Angry Birds main theme, specifically 5:15 to 5:25.
it's always a sight to see harmonic orchestra goes with the times of playing masterpieces that certain groups of people would appreciate. At the same time, any song could be beautifully played in orchestra. certain renditions and adaptations would actually come out really great... like this!
I've said it before on other videos, but this is pure art. Anyone who still says video games can't be art are plain wrong, and performances like this prove that video games have _always_ been art.
This is the best symphony version of Mega Man music I've heard. This is only the second one I've heard so it has an edge over the Sweedish take. That edge comes from incorporating more instruments that better captures and fills out the songs. Of course this is probably something the Sweeds were unable to do because of the size of the orchestra and the venue. The Sweedish approach seemed to be a more traditional in the sense that they used different instruments to play pieces of the song to create a build up and brought it all together in certain spots whereas this group is playing the whole songs as a group capturing more of the sounds from the 8 bit versions and its more familar.
I feel it's a source of secret exhilaration when there's a piece like this that requires an orchestral percussionist to "get on the kit." They are all such talented, versatile performers, and don't get a lot of credit for it. But music like this requires so much driving rhythm that it wouldn't have been the same without that guy on drums, especially the sweeping MM2 overture.

This video let you understand how much work and talent there is behind the soundtrack of the great Megaman Nes saga
11歳の長男に誕プレで贈ったファミコンミニからロックマンにハマりました。世代を超えて愛されるゲームとゲーム音楽、すごいです
Fucking brilliant to make Gemini Man's theme into a Bossa nova style beat.
I come back to this one the most, it's sooo good. Especially the Gemini Man part
Coming out the gate hot with woodman after the intro. Spicy take. We’ll see how well they fare against the boss having not beaten metal man yet.
B Benson or heat man lol

スネークマンのトランペットソロうっっっま…鳥肌だわ
Mega Man 3 soundtrack throughout is the best soundtrack on the 8 bit.. Fantastic.. Haven't played it in 20 years and can still hear all the stages..
That's the power of a really good game. Especially one with such iconic music as Mega Man.

Such a masterpiece seeing/hearing game themed orchestras

I got chills when snake man starts playing
They just nailed it with Gemini man's theme
Giving me James Bond vibe
Amazing
That was super dope!
ロックマンシリーズの音楽大好き！カッコイイ！
Uff el tema de sparkman les quedó brutal
Standing ovation 👏👏👏👏👏👏
音楽重なるところ好きなんだよなぁ
テレビでやってたんや....見たかったなぁ....
Gemini Man's stage almost sounds like something out of The Incredibles, I love it
Wheres my super adaptor
@@AntR803 lol
@@AntR803 Roll: Why do you need to know?
The Megas did a great remix of it with a spy-movie type of sound.
Watch the violinist on the left at 5:32....she has this look like "That damm level got me every time!"
ひとつひとつを思い出して泣きたくなる
思い出は億千万ってね…
しかしまぁ この曲作った人がすごい
Oh wow! never seen an orchestration of Gemini man, so amazing
man, Wily theme could play forever!!! so good!
For some reason, the one added extra note in Dr. Wily’s theme causes tears to flow. And my heart to ache. I’ve listened to it several times and it never fails. In case you’re curious, it’s at 7:36
That note somehow makes the song sound even more Japanese, in a good way
I instantly knew what you were talking about before I even checked the stamp. It’s a very powerful note!!
That's my favorite section of the song.
Just goes to demonstrate how powerful a single note can be. I got that sad feeling as well.
Ditto
If I didn’t know they were performing Mega Man music, I’d seriously think it was from a Star Trek movie. Excellent rendition!!!!!🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Gemini man sounds like a jazz club.
Awesome Gemini Man, and the Snake man theme is badass too
That Gemini Man interpretation just puts a smile on my face.
Rolando J. R. León in your face?
It was the most beautiful
Conductor is so happi! Makes me smile! =D
指揮者の笑顔がいいですね☺️👍👍👍
OMG I remember being 9 years old and my friend running up to me showing me his copy of MM2. Man the hours we spent.
This is so excellently arranged and very well played! Such incredible ensemble!
I love this so much❤ makes me so happy and lucky to listen these masterpieces they have done for us.
I never expected something like this.
最高です！曲のチョイスも大好き最高です
I never even played these games but I LOVE this!! Everything is so beautiful! The trombones at 7 minutes kick ass!
OMG this is exactly what I heard when played it 1st time 30 years ago.
Nah, too slow the tempo (beat)
megaman 2 dr willy 1 stage theme my favorite the best
This is a Gemini Man Disney version. I love it
Always loved covers of Wood Mans theme
Wood Man is the most underrated song in the series and still one of my faves
Agreed
It is quite nice.
Is this epic
why does listening to this makes me cry?
Nostalgia?
I just love it so much
If you read this, you are a person of culture as well...
So are you
thank you
Damn straight, and I didn't even need to eat a yogurt this time.
[CULCHER]
Gracias hombre, usted tambien 😊👍
Holy shit that Gemini Man is gorgeous.
So wish they would have done the MM3 intro though.. great performance though
There is a different video that starts on MM3 intro : czcams.com/video/jdVpJfXXoFI/video.html and I personnaly consider it better.
Agree !!
HERMOSO, ME SACÓ MAS DE UNA LAGRIMA...MI NIÑEZ COMPLETA
Gonna be honest here, I cried during the intro section. Mega man will always have such a special place in my heart.
Edit: I love the fact that you can tell the director is a Mega man fan and is enjoying himself so much lol
Excellent job you all did
This is amazing on so many levels.
Love it! Snake man theme is my favorite part.
Ami tambien 😆👍 but Woodman was surprisingly good too
