Violin Video Game Music - FF14 Ul'Dah Theme

I've been a violin player for over 15 years and a viola player for almost 5 years. I also like to play computer games every once in a while. My current "drug" of choice is Final Fantasy 14.

One passion of mine is to help keep the violin relevant for today. I've started arranging some game music for violin and would like to share and discuss with the community of other violinists.

In the below link I've arranged the themes from the city of Ul'dah in the game for solo violin. If you want to play it I have sheet music at the youtube and facebook links.

I'll try and update here with videos of new music, but like my facebook page if you want the music as soon as it's ready.

I'm a console gamer myself and gaming music has definitely helped feed my "I wanna play violin" fire. There are beautiful pieces from games like Crono Cross, Final Fantasy VI, and many others that I STILL want to master and play.

I wish gaming music got more respect than it currently does. A lot of the pieces are really just wonderful.

Great job on the FF XIV piece and thank you for the sheet music! I look forward to hearing your other works.
