So the first time around I tried too much with little desire to continue working with the material at hand. This time I'm choosing the series we'll be doing so that way I'll actually have a desire  to finish this within a year.

So what'll we be playing?

Super Mario Bros.

QuoteLet's get as many people we can muster to join together to perform a piece that will be a testament to both the website as well as the fantastic talent that comes through these doors. I'm not talking about us all learning one piece to play in unison, nor am I talking about some sort of medley that this site already organizes; I'm talking about a piece, a single arrangement or medley, in which we have 10, 15, 20 pianists each playing a part unique to them! And why stop there? We could even extend this to our other instrumentalists, make this one fantastic event in which we can all participate.

Granted, we'd need someone to arrange all of this, figure out some rehearsal times, and find a way to put this all of this, but I think we could get this done before school starts back up in August. I am aware that some of us will be in school during this period, including myself; but what's the point of music if not to try something ambitious.

Once again, if you are interested in playing this please sign up with whatever instruments you want to play with. I ask that if you signup you have a means of being able to record yourself, Video preferred, but audio at the very least.

I'll be taking suggestions for pieces you want to play later.

Don't suggest anything right now.

I'm going to already include some pieces that are standards for the series. I want to try and make this a total as possible and include at least one theme from the main platformer series. Music from the RPGs are welcome and expected. I'm going to avoid the sports games and other spinoffs with a few exceptions for Mario Party, Mario Kart, and and Non-Mario Games (Games under the Mario Series, but not starring Mario, e.g. Luigi's Mansion, Wario Land, etc.).

FierceDeity

You have my euphonium.
And my trombone.
*patiently waits for lord of the rings reference*

K-NiGhT

I'll play violin and piano. We probably won't need vocals for this, but i sing bass. If you need any more low brass at the end of signups, i may be able to do euphonium. Getting the instrument from school may be a problem though

Zunawe

Trombone and Euphonium. Possibly piano, but I probably have horrible technique by now and it takes me quite a while to get things down. It'd be best to not put me down for piano unless you really needed another.
You know you've been playing too much Dragon Quest when you're afraid your Hershey's Kisses are going to flee.

I program things

Ideally by the time you finish arranging I'll have learned banjo to a satisfactory degree as well. And maybe trumpet too. Who knows?
But don't put them on the list yet.

EDIT: Oh and I can also sing tenor if you really need it. I've never actually sang for an actual group before tho; just in church. :P So consider me a backup if need be.
