Thanks to YouTubers Quietschquatsch and Raphy013 for the music suggestion a few days ago!
Not only did Tom find this a fun tune to play, but, as you'll see, flautist Julia Riley and tubaist (tubist?) Mark Meeker decided to join in as well!
After Tom's first sight-read, you hear Julia mention another Nintendo videogame tune that she liked. That was K.K. Ragtime. A short time later, Tom and Julia played it from memory! I'll have to post the video of that moment at a later date. It was fully evolved into a fleshed-out rag arrangement, much like the second run through this tune from Super Mario World 2 in this video.
This tune was composed by Koji Kondo (近藤浩治). It is also known as "Hop! Hop! Donut Lifts" by some people, but in a concert video of Nintendo video game music at which the composer was in attendance, the title that appears clearly reads (if you read Japanese, anyway) simply "Yosshii Island Athletic Theme".

You can tell by the laughter at the end. In this case you can hear "That's a lot of fun!" In some you can hear things like, "Cool!" or "Oh, that's cute!" etc.

It my video. You should be able to recognize my voice in it from many of my other videos. These older videos were shot with a still camera's low-quality video recording mode.

With that old camera, the sound was going to be bad wherever I stood!

Everyone needs to watch past the first minute or so. He was butchering it for a couple of moments in the beginning while figuring it out but the second part where the other band members joined in was just astonishing.
It was great to see them all having fun playing it too! Bravo Guys

This was amazing. This video made me so much happier, especially when the other musicians joined in. Thank you for posting this and I can't wait to see more from Mr. Brier.

Using sarcasm and passive-aggressive nonsense to "win" the argument you started, nice.
Anyways, agreed on the last part. Please don't reply again.

I'm not sure what in this video makes me happier: these great musicians keeping old musical styles alive or the fact they know about Yoshi's Island.

Too bad this magic moment was recorded with such poor sound quality :-(
