DLC #3.1 – Smiles and Tears

DLC stands for Digital Large Collaboration, a new NGSO virtual project, where many members each contribute separately-recorded parts to a full-ensemble performance.

In this DLC addition, we perform “Smiles and Tears” from Earthbound entirely on Belleplates. Please take a listen and enjoy!

Inspired By Musical Excellence & Appreciation

The NGSO Mission

The NGSO believes that music should be challenging, yet fun. Where once symphony orchestras were relegated to concert halls, contemporary orchestras are finding alternate routes of musical expression! The NGSO presents video game music as orchestrated arrangements – this is not the blips and bloops of the 80’s (although sometimes we manage to work it in!)

  • Foster Musical Appreciation: Foster an appreciation for video game music as an important cultural art form

  • Promote Musical Excellence: Promote and propel local musicians to improve their skills

  • Encourage Meaningful Experience: Come together collectively and collaboratively engage in meaningful social interaction within the community
