[DID NOT ATTEND: November 17, 2023] Bit Brigade/ Triforce Quartet
I have only seen Bit Brigade once and it was amazing.
The premise behind a Bit Brigade show is that the band plays the soundtrack to a video game while their resident gamer plays the game. The band is heavy and the sound is amazing.
I don’t know why exactly I didn’t get a ticket for this show. They are playing one game I’ve never heard of, and one that I haven’t played in 30 years, but that shouldn’t make any difference.
Maybe when they come by next year.
Although if Mc Lars was opening I definitely would have gone.
Which is not a dis of Triforce Quartet who play string versions of video game themes.
Triforce Quartet began innocently as a short Zelda medley for an encore of a recital in early 2007, but the video of using traditional string quartet instruments to play music of classic games gained viral popularity later that summer. Thanks to this, cellist Chad Schwartz was able to combine his love for video games, along with years of classical training, to arrange a variety of video game themes that even non-gamers can enjoy. The four members of the Triforce Quartet take audience members on an unforgettable musical journey.
Their music is beautiful.
If I wasn’t going to see Mass of Fermenting Dregs, I would sneak across town to see this too.
