Bämeräng Medley from the video game Bämeräng (2021), arr. by Jean Kleeb
Michel Barengo
The Fictional Adventures of Orin and the Wandering Tune (2025, commissioned by the Sinfonieorchester Basel)
The sound of a symphony orchestra can be heard in many games. But passionate gamers rarely get to hear hits from The Legend of Zelda, Starfield, Mario + Rabbids or Fallout 4 live. The concert will combine these familiar sounds with a new composition by Swiss video game composer Michel Barengo and a new arrangement of the soundtrack to the Swiss game Bämeräng. What makes this project particularly exciting is that young people have actively supported and helped Barengo in the process of creating his new composition.
The Basel Sinfonieorchester will be conducted by the legendary Eímear Noone - also known as the 'Irish Queen of Game Music' for composing the music for World of Warcraft and Starcraft II.
