About
This book was created from January to April in 2009. The book is designed as a teaching/motivational tool for beginner/early intermediate/advanced piano players. It's designed for kids/teenagers or anyone who loves video games. Fisher chose to do this because video game music was his initial motivator to seriously pursue music in school and he also wanted to create a less traditional book for teachers to use with their students who may be sick of or burned out on traditional repertoire.
The pages in a reverse Guitar Hero type of setup. Guitar Hero takes popular music and, rather than having someone learn to play it, it is converted into a game that can easily be picked up and played by anyone. Piano Games takes the music from video games and designed the pages to appear as if the pianist is "playing through a level" and using their piano as their controller.
Daniel Brown Challenge
The Daniel Brown Challenge is a piece written by music graduate Daniel Brown. This piece is meant expert players who have managed to play through the other arrangements in the book. It is an arrangement of Mega Man 2 Wily Stage 1.
