Hello All,

I've been a violin player for over 15 years and a viola player for almost 5 years. I also like to play computer games every once in a while. My current "drug" of choice is Final Fantasy 14.

One passion of mine is to help keep the violin relevant for today. I've started arranging some game music for violin and would like to share and discuss with the community of other violinists.

In the below link I've arranged the themes from the city of Ul'dah in the game for solo violin. If you want to play it I have sheet music at the youtube and facebook links.

I'll try and update here with videos of new music, but like my facebook page if you want the music as soon as it's ready.

Cheers,
~Kris

Say Kris,

That's pretty good. I'm curious, are you arranging these pieces by plain "hearing" and staff, or are you using other tools?

Welcome to the forum.

I am mostly relying on my hearing, mostly using this video.

I was able to find a piano sheet music of this particular theme that helped with some of the harmony, but aside from that it didn't have the energy I was looking for in my arrangement.

For the next piece of music I'm working on I haven't been able to find any sheet music for it. It fuses bach with rock elements in a very interesting way.

I'm finalizing form of the music now and will hopefully have video out in about a month.
