From March 5th to 6th 2022, the Royal Festival Hall, London, will host a concert featuring the music of fan-favourites Cuphead, Ori and the Blind Forest and Ori and the Will of the Wisps. Having played 2 out of the 3 games I can definitely say that the soundtracks are awesome with Cuphead being all big band jazz and Ori being more a more meditative, lush orchestral. The big draw on the second night is a 160 piece orchestra that will play the music on the second, and final night. Tickets (available at the official site) start from £25 but obviously rise with different seating positions.

Over the course of the weekend, there will be several workshops and events about video game composing which promises to be a great experience for those interested in that field.

Unfortunately, I can’t go as I’m here in Devon, living my best life, but for those who can why not experience some of the most iconic scores of the last few years!
