If you've seen my other videos of Tom sight-reading videogame ragtime sheet music that I've put in front of him, this video should come as no surprise to you.
I had not yet finished correcting the awful score that is available online for this tune (I did put it into the correct time signature, but it still has some really funky chords and other problems), nevertheless I put a copy of it as it stands in front of my amazingly talented friend Tom Brier this weekend.
This was the result.
Tom is a highly regarded pianist and sight-reader in the ragtime community. I have other videos of him you can find (and more to come) which will give you an idea why.
There are so many amateur pianists out there playing these rags from video games, but I thought it would be nice to see what a pianist who specializes in ragtime music would make of them.
This tune is by Koji Kondo (近藤浩治) and is one of the most famous tunes of all music from Nintendo video games.
I still haven't cleaned up the score completely. Here it is as Tom was reading it -- no repeats, some questionable chords, etc.

Yes, this is his first time seeing or hearing the music.
I've had countless requests to give Tom music from the Zelda series, but there is no ragtime in it as far as I know (having never played the games). However, I was informed of a couple tunes that could translate into ragtime. This sort of bluegrass fiddle tune translates the best.
The arrangement I was shown comes from a songbook published in Japan. The arrangements in there are way oversimplified. They don't even do the right bass notes, and the melodies are in single notes. You'll notice on the score here a few penned-in corrections that I had thrown in.
But the simplified score meant that Tom was more free to fill it in his own way, much like the popular video of him riffing off the Birabuto Kingdom theme.
The result is a great big yee-haw romp!
The tune was composed by Koji Kondo -- 近藤浩治 -- and appears both in Majora's Mask -- ムジュラの仮面 -- and The Ocarina of Time -- 時のオカリナ.
