Découvrez la vidéo Super Mario Bros. Theme, Final Fantasy X To Zanarkand, and Halo 2 Mjolnir Mix de Video Game Pianist sur Le Fil YouTube de Piano Partage.

I play the Super Mario Bros. Theme, Final Fantasy X - To Zanarkand, and Halo 2 Mjolnir Mix! Greetings from VGP Studio! This is a screen test video.

The three pieces test the various ranges of the piano and how well the microphones can record the sound. For example, the Super Mario Bros. theme requires the use of the mid range of the piano, To Zanarkand requires the mid and high ranges of the piano, and Halo 2 Mjolnir Mix requires the low, mid, and high ranges of the piano.
