The Washington Metropolitan Gamer Symphony Orchestra (WMGSO) is proud to present our Fall 2024 full-ensemble production with our 130+ member orchestra and choir. This performance will heavily feature a symphonic suite from the Grammy-award-winning score of the video game, Journey. We will also have a collection of arrangements inspired by Helldivers 2, Undertale, Zelda, and more.
Online ticket sales will end at 12:00 pm on Saturday, November 23rd. Tickets will be available for purchase at the door. Live stream tickets will also be available for those who'd like to attend virtually.
More About WMGSO
The Washington Metropolitan Gamer Symphony Orchestra (WMGSO) is a nonprofit community orchestra based in the D.C.-metro area. We have over 130 active members participating in our full orchestra and choir, and we arrange and perform music exclusively from video games!
Because most video game music is not written for an orchestra and choir, our musicians must transform the original compositions into an orchestral version called an arrangement. Arranging is one of the most challenging and rewarding aspects of what we do.
The vast majority of our repertoire was arranged exclusively for WMGSO by our own members. Our music is based on a wide range of video games: classic to new, popular to obscure. Several of our arrangements also draw on and incorporate classical works and traditions, making them even more unique and special. We’re nerds who are committed to the source material and the classical art.
Northern Virginia Community College does not sponsor or endorse this event.
