Hello! My name is Andrés Soto, the founder and creative lead behind VGOScore, your premier destination for the symphonic appreciation and study of the vibrant world of video game music. Founded with a passion for bringing these magical scores into the spotlight of concert halls, VGOScore serves as a vital bridge connecting gamers and classical music enthusiasts alike to the rich, musical narratives of the medium.
As a Barcelona-based composer, orchestrator, arranger, and conductor, my journey in music spans across various realms including film, television, and commercials. However, my true passion resides in the interactive universe of video games. With years of experience leading both amateur and semi-professional orchestras, I have dedicated myself to the art of musical storytelling and transcription, ensuring each arrangement captures the essence of the original score while remaining accessible for musicians.
VGOScore stands as a testament to innovation and educational preservation within the music community. Here, you will find a curated archive of professionally arranged scores—many of which are my own transcriptions—designed to transport listeners and performers into the heart of their favorite digital worlds. Our mission is simple yet profound: to promote the study of these compositions, offering high-quality resources for educational development and orchestral appreciation.
Our unique approach to sharing music through YouTube allows you to analyze the orchestration and follow the score note-by-note, providing an authentic and immersive visual learning experience. This initiative has not only opened doors for orchestras worldwide to explore video game music but has also enriched their repertoire with our detailed arrangements.
To sustain the significant effort and research required to create these resources, we have established a patreon community. While we share our knowledge freely on YouTube, our patrons are the lifeblood of this project. By supporting VGOScore on patreon, members gain exclusive access to our research library—including PDF scores, editable files, and audio resources—designed for those keen on deeply exploring the orchestration techniques of these works.
I invite you to join our growing community by subscribing to our YouTube channel, liking us on Facebook, and following us on X. Stay tuned for the latest releases, news, and updates from VGOScore.
Together, let’s celebrate the artistry of video game music and bring it to the forefront of the classical music scene.
Warm regards,
