Thanks PeteP here's IMO the best excerpt from the whole article:
Eimear Noone says game music is where movie music was 15 years ago: well on its way to being completely accepted.
“I predict that in 15 years’ time it will be a main staple of the orchestral season,” she says. “This is crazy to think of: Today, more young people are listening to orchestral music through the medium of their video game consoles than have ever listened to orchestral music.”
I completely agree. The vast amount of music that is being written for video games and as such high calibre today is incredible. You're getting at times 3 times or more the volume of music you'd expect to a film score.
One day we'll have the Sony Classical Video Game Symphonies Series.
I'm all for that. Much video game music is disposable, but a great deal of it is superb, and the best of it deserves to stand right alongside the best of film music (and concert music!)
