c64 orchestra (very first rehearsal)

C64 Orchestra approached two of the most experienced C64-users from the 1980s, Rob Hubbard and Jeroen Tel. The current work of these two Commodore 64 musicians intend their compositions to be exploited with the aid of a classical orchestra.
The compositions that they are going to play:
Rob Hubbard's compositions:
Monty on the Run, One Man And His Droid, Commando, International Karate, Master of Magic.
Jeroen Tel's:
Cybernoid II, Hawkeye, Myth, Supremacy, Iron Lord.
Midway 2006 will see this production premiered.

Tickets go on sale for the American Tour in March, don't miss it!

[thecmen]

[tassadar1977]

This sucks. Why are the best c64 events so euro-centric? come to australia please!

[thecmen]

preferably in front of sydny's opera house, so my international karate video looks even cooler ;)

Well, if someone has a concrete plan we'll come

[tassadar1977]

We should start a petition thecmen :)

[thecmen]

hehe wouldn't mind going door to door down under, but living in Holland wouldn't facilitate it ;)

@tassadar1977 Agreed! I always wanted to see the Amiga demo scene in person since i had been following it since 1990 but to get ANY chance to see it i had to spend about $6000 in travel and expenses just live it out in Germany then fly all the way back to Australia.

I had a C64 before the Amiga but something like this NEEDS to come to Australia! There are SO MANY guys my age (36 for me) and older that (some younger too of course) would come to this orchestral event!!

PLEASE COME!

@GameMusicCompilation This is the main theme from Cybernoid II, you may listen it on watch?v=7UoEqEbxra4 :D

[GameMusicCompilation]

[sutasman]

[dpiktoria]

God Bless you All.

[stooart2008]

brilliant!

[Abrimaal]

And Platoon and Robocop... but they play only Jeroen Tel's and Rob Hubbard's music,

but... Apocalyptica on their first album covered only Metallica, then they broadened their horizons. I hope they will do the same way.

"have the best C64 music ever"

I would like people stop to say thinkgs like this.

It's only you single, small, irrilevant, pityful opinion.

[cosine303]

there are LOADS of musicians whose work they could cover.. BUT everyone knows Hubbard / Tel's work.. I'd like to see them cover Tim Follin + Martin Galway's work also and a fair few more Jonathan Dunn etc. but Galway / Follin are maybe the 2 next 2 well known people?

[spikeman14]

They should do Comic Bakery and Turbo outrun
