I wonder if it will be better or worse
than the originals.

Great tho that they recognise quality.

I am tempted to go there.

This does sound rather interesting.  I do hope video/audio of the event is made available.

The question one must is which Amiga music will be selected for the medley, and perhaps more importantly, which tracks will open and close the performance? ;)

Cheers,
James

This is what I managed to find after some extensive research of the "read more" link: :-D

The medley includes:
- Alien Breed by Allister Brimble
- James Pond 2 by Richard Joseph
- Pinball Fantasies by Olof Gustafsson
- Lionheart by Matthias Steinwachs
- Lemmings by Brian Johnston and Tim Wright
- Turrican 2 by Chris Huelsbeck

The last Scandinavian Orchestral game music medley had 7 seconds of music from C64 M.U.L.E.  Why only 7 seconds for such a quality tune?  :bigcry:

Most of the last concert was bgcpc music and Nintendo music with a bit of C64 music thrown in.

I imagine this Amiga music medley will only get about 5 mins if we are lucky.

They are great choices for orchestral versions. Especially Robocod :-) Does anyone know whether a recording will be available online?
