Mario Party 10 - The Castle of Chaos
Composer: Rei Kondoh, Toshiki Aida
Arranger: Patty Harden
Mario Party 10 is kinda seen as the black sheep of its franchise, but
it does shine in its soundtrack. Chaos Castle, the so-called “final
stage” in the game, has varying stakes whether you play in “Mario
Party” or “Bowser Party,” and so this arrangement covers all three
zones. The ending, I wanted to end mysteriously as if the characters
face their finale against the chosen final boss (which would be Bowser
in this case but since it’s also chosen at random...who knows?)

The 8-Bit Orchestra was inspired by the University of Maryland Gamer Symphony Orchestra, the first collegiate ensemble dedicated to performing video game music.
8-Bit pieces are arranged by students, conducted by students, and performed by students of the University of Delaware. The group organizes concerts twice a year: at the end of the fall and spring semesters. Starting with a group of around 40, now reaching nearly 60 members from a wide variety of majors, the 8-Bit Orchestra is continuing to grow. Today, we are the largest instrumental music RSO on campus, and have been invited to perform at off-campus events like Minefaire, the Minecraft fan convention and Comic-Con for Kids.
