Episode 79: Five Finger Fanfare, Part 2

We are back again, and this time we're returning to a classic show theme for another Part 2, this one focusing on the Five-Finger Fanfare (a term coined by the Super Marcato Bros. on their excellent and seminal VGM podcast). This is a term used to describe a run of 5 notes that line up with the first 5 notes of the minor scale - a technique used frequently in video game music. Will you be able to hear the Five-Finger Fanfares in each piece of Very Good Music the hosts brought to this episode? Only one way to find out!
