He's not even been officially released yet, but Big Band is already starting to make waves thanks to some impressive musicians out there.

As you're probably aware, using Big Band's standing medium punch causes him to take out a trumpet and allows the player to play actual music using various combinations of punches and kicks. The Skullgirls player base immediately went to work and has been composing endless arrangements.

However, in the last few days a few particularly spectacular examples have been showcased, including Big Band's Holiday by SKT KST, which doesn't just stop with using his trumpet, but also adds in drum pedals and cymbals from the rest of Big Band's arsenal. To achieve the complex melodies in the songs, SKT KST's videos are tool assisted and use multiple Big Bands. This means they're not necessarily played by hand, but they are still an amazing showcase of what is possible using Big Band's musical influences.

You can find a few other songs on SKT KST's youtube channel. It's interesting to see how complex the songs have gotten over the last couple of weeks.

If you're interested in this, be sure to check out The Big Band MP Song Thread and get your groove on.
Also, thanks to Olimar12345 for the Legend of the Skullheart sheet music in the thread banner that was posted in the Sheet Music thread.

Real life. Is this it.
 
If we could get the whole musical ensemble(Squigly, Taliesin, Eliza, and even Beowulf) we got Skullgirls On Ice!

Beowulf is musical?
 
Beowulf is musical?
They said he also has singing talent besides his wrestling, so yeah.
 
IGG description and Wikia bear no mention of such thing so I'll have to question the validity of that statement as well.
Unless, of course, we're talking about the percussionist art of Chair-on-Head.


Anyway, when can we expect Big Band trumpet battle side tournaments?
- Both players with solo Big Band
- Take turns at playing a song
- Each song has to be different
- First to choke eats a combo
- After the combo, the player that attacked plays and the one who choked better think of something fast :P
:PUN:
 
Why must we fight? Let's spread the joy by making music instead

Watch this be the canon way to defeat the SH once and for all with one musical note at a time.
