Publications containing musical notation from video games allow musicians to learn and perform these compositions on instruments. These resources typically include transcriptions of background music, character themes, and other significant musical pieces from various games. An example might be a collection of arrangements from a popular role-playing game, suitable for piano or other instruments.
Access to musical scores from video games provides a valuable bridge between interactive entertainment and musical practice. It allows musicians to develop their skills while engaging with familiar and beloved soundtracks. This practice also contributes to the preservation and appreciation of video game music as a distinct art form, allowing it to be studied and performed outside of its original context. Furthermore, the increasing availability of such resources reflects the growing recognition of video game music within the broader musical landscape.
