Forward
I want to first of all, thank the people at Nintendo for creating this video game classic which I
have fond memories of playing for many hours during my early teen years and way into my 20s. I want
to especially thank the composer, Kondo Koji, for composing such memorable tunes which will remain
within us to those who have played this wonderful game series.
I first heard the piano arrangements of the Super Mario series on the internet played by The
Blindfolded Pianist, a.k.a. Martin Leung, about 4‐5 years back and I was thrilled to hear these gems on
the piano. As most of the people probably did, I looked for the sheet music but I couldn’t find the
complete transcriptions/arrangements for the piano except the ones available done by Martin. It was
recently that I watched Martin’s performance video again and it was then when I decided if I couldn’t
purchase the
scores
I’ll
do
my
own
transcriptions
and
arrangements.
So
it
is
Mr.
Martin
Leung
that
I
owe my inspiration to do my own transcriptions of these musical gems.
Since I couldn’t find any “Officially” published music scores for these BMG (Background Music)
for the Super Mario series, I did my searches on the net and got my hands on many midi files and nsf
(Nintendo Sound Format) files to play and to listen in order to notate the music. As for notating the
music, I used Sibelius notation software to make the scores.
It has taken me many hours listening, transcribing, arranging, notating, and editing the scores. I
have tried to be as faithful to the original music as possible with some additional elaborations and
extensions done
by
me.
As
for
the
level
of
performance
difficulty,
most
of
these
are
HARD!
I arranged
these as “Concert Transcriptions”, which are usually technically very difficult and needs to be practiced
very diligently. With diligent and hard practice , the result of your labor should be fruitful. With this
being said, I hope you enjoy these gems.
p.s. Please show your appreciation by mentioning and crediting me as the transcriber/arranger if you
ever perform these or record. Thank you.
