Happy Thanksgiving from all of us at WVGO! One thing we are truly thankful for is this wonderful arrangement of Zelda's Lullaby written by local composer, clarinetist and all around cool guy, Chris Byman! Listen to the Sidequest Quintet performing it for @extralifewpg.bsky.social here!

One more preview of some of the music you'll hear at our GENESIS Concert, coming up on November 14th! Get your tickets today at wvgo.ca/tickets! There's a very subtle hint as to what game this is from, I'm not sure anyone is going to figure this one out. 😉

Another sneak peak at one of the tunes you'll hear at our GENESIS Concert coming up on Friday November 14th! What game do you think it is? Tickets available now at wvgo.co/tickets!

Another sneak peak at some of the music you'll hear at our Genesis concert on November 14th! We were originally planning on doing this piece at our outdoor concert this past June but thought it really needed to be heard in a hall!

Thank you! 🫶

Another Sidequest Quintet video! This one is from Larian Studios' smash hit Baldur's Gate 3! This arrangement was written by clarinetist Amanda Forest (@amandaforestclarinet on Insta)! Composer @borislavslavov.bsky.social even shared a clip someone else recorded on Twitter! Thanks again, Borislav!

Are you a French Horn player and want to join us for our next concert? We'd like to hear from you! Send us an email at [email protected] with your name, how long you've been playing, and any experience you may have playing in other community bands. We'd love to hear from you!

Quick correction regarding the arranger's name: It's Steven Arango! The social media person in charge did this early in the morning before work! 😅

Another snippet of the Sidequest Quintet's performance for @extralifewpg.bsky.social is up on our Youtube channel! Roam the castle halls of Trodain in their performance of Stephen Arrango's arrangement of "Remembrances" from Dragon Quest VIII!

Looking back again at our performance this past summer! Arranger/orchestrator/ensemble member Meg Specht (@breakareed on instagram) arranged Piranha Plants on Parade, the cute little ditty from that one level in Super Mario Bros. Wonder for us!

This past August, five of our musicians created their own little quintet dubbed the "Sidequest Quintet", and put together a performance for @extralifewpg.bsky.social's Extra Life North event! Opening the concert was this great arrangement of Super Mario RPG music by the legendary Bassoonify!

Looking back again at our performance this past June! Here's a quick little revisit of the games that got us started our quests to "Catch 'Em All"! All of the wonderful youtube thumbnail artwork on our channel was made by Maddy (@mj_dashy on instagram!)

Here's a throwback to our first performance last June, opening for the University of Manitoba's Summer Band! You can't have a video game orchestra without everyone's favourite mustachioed plumber!
