Wii Music Main Theme Jazz Arrangement || insaneintherainmusic (feat. Emily Gelineau)

Anyone can make music. All it takes is a Wiimote, a Nunchuk, Wii Music, and some crazy imagination! Insaneintherainmusic's jazz cover / remix of the Wii Music main theme / menu theme, featuring Emily Gelineau on violin & electric violin! Check out Emily's YouTube channel! https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCM5fIEs6fNPATN6Hd0Uh54g I believe that video game music is a hugely important part of many of our lives. To pay tribute to these fantastic compositions and their composers, I arrange their compositions in various jazz styles! I release video game jazz arrangements on this channel every other Saturday at 12:30 PM EST! 😀 Watch more Wii covers • • • https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLG5z-46tZguIbGGzEKL78cLxTY52YASFs 🎷 Subscribe • • • http://bit.ly/insanesubscribe ❤️ Support my music on Patreon • • • http://bit.ly/supportinsane 🎼 Sheet Music • • • https://bit.ly/2H9agUB 🎵 Can't offer this song for download due to legal reasons, sorry! This game means so much to me. I played this game so much in my middle school years, and looking back, I can credit it to much of my early development of creativity with arranging. I know a lot of people didn't like this game very much, and that's totally cool, but this game has so much potential to educate young people about different styles of music. The motion controls were a perfect way to introduce a curious kid to many different styles of instruments, the ability to shift a song into any style in the game so seamlessly was super cool, and the ability to play the right notes of any song by just swinging the Wii Remote or pressing the right button at the right time is so cool. Nowadays, I don't play this game much, but I do, however, speedrun it! It's a weird speedrun category, but I speedrun the Wii Music Pitch Perfect category, where I go through all 8 levels of Pitch Perfect in as fast of a time as possible. Currently, I'm the WR holder at 19:15, but still looking to push it! I sometimes stream my runs on Twitch! https://www.twitch.tv/insaneintherain As for my arrangement of this song, I really wanted to keep the instrumentation similar to the original, since there's a saxophone featured in it! I brought along my friend and fellow Berklee student Emily to cover the violin and electric violin parts. We played together in the Yellowjackets Ensemble here at Berklee a few semesters ago, and she's one of the best jazz violinists I've met! This arrangement definitely has a classic Yellowjackets / 80's feel to it, which I think suits the original theme pretty well! The main melodic motif is so simple (starting from do re mi after the pickup), which perfectly suits a game that's meant to educate players about music! ♫ "Main Menu" from "Wii Music" composed by Kazumi Totaka SOCIAL MEDIA: 🐦 Twitter • • • https://twitter.com/insanerainmusic 📘 Facebook • • • https://www.facebook.com/Insaneintherainmusic 📷 Instagram • • • https://instagram.com/insaneintherainmusic ❤️ Patreon • • • http://bit.ly/supportinsane ⚙️ Gear • • • https://kit.com/insaneintherainmusic 💬 Discord Sever • • • https://discord.gg/Ju97889 🔊 Distrokid VIP Link • • • http://distrokid.com/vip/insane
