    Interview: Amy Turk Takes Video Game Music to the Next Level

    While searching for video game soundtracks on YouTube, I found there were hundreds of covers by some amazing musicians. Amy Turk stands out as one of the most accomplished and unusual, transforming video game music with her harp to a higher art form.

    As fans will know, the Nintendo game series Legend of Zelda has some of the most beautiful and intricate video game soundtracks ever made. This is largely due to the work of composer Koji Kondo, who was the first composer hired by Nintendo. His soundtrack for the 1985 game Super Mario Bros is one of the most memorable in video game history.
