Advanced Video Game and Anime Group Music

Advanced video game, anime and other odds and ends. There is some amazing music written for video games. And even though I know nothing about the games themselves (I have never had time to play them personally) several students had brought in some extremely complex scores. The use of darker harmony, minor scales and several different modes is distinctive in this genera of music. There is much more dissonance and this allows the students ears to develop to the ear of a more advanced musician. several of the songs use 5th and 7th position and most are written in flat keys ofter 5 or 6 flats. Hence this forces the student to read in much more complicated key signatures.
