Video Games Can Save Classical Music - Based on Roger Scruton's ideas on Music

Video Games Can Save Classical Music: am I exaggerating when I say music is going through a critical moment in history and to my surprise Video Games can play a small but important role in reminding us of our important musical heritage? Bear with me and by the end of the video, I hope to convince you that Music for Games especially AAA games play an important role to save classical music and make it accessible to a new generation of people who are rarely exposed to classical music outside of video games. From God of War to Zelda, the examples are abundant of high-quality classical music in video games In the video, we heavily rely on the books, writings, and lectures of Sir Roger Scruton. Roger Scruton might not have written anything about games but his ideas on music can be heard and felt in many works of music in Video Games.
