‘Ocarina’ Celebrates The Music Of Zelda
Scintillations Music and YOUBRIO present OCARINA, a new live concert celebrating the endearing music of the Zelda videogames.
Inspired by the musical themes of famed videogame composer Koji Kondo, OCARINA combines the powers, colours and thrills of live jazz and classical orchestration, bringing together some of Australia’s most eminent young musical talent. Discover the ocarina, the real-life ancient wind instrument played by the game’s central character Link, to traverse far reaches, unlock temples and dungeons, and summon companions in his journey to rescue Princess Zelda.
Award-winning pianist and director of Scintillations Music Nick Young renews his collaboration with videogame jazz sensations The Consouls, following their first collaboration in 2017 to celebrate the tenth-year anniversary of Final Fantasy VII. Also joining them are Ensemble Françaix and Con Brio Strings, adding the colours of woodwind and strings to create a rich symphonic effect.
Recorder experimentalist Ryan Williams caps off the musical cast, bringing along with him authentic ocarinas that will be a central feature of the performance. Accompanying the live performances are visual projections inspired by characters, settings and events of the game, produced in collaboration with graphic artist Vicky Zhang.
