“Orchestral Soundtracks (OST) is excited to perform again, and this time it’s bigger and better than ever!” comments OST’s co-founder Charles Li. “After a fantastic Spring Concert, we’ve experienced growth both in membership and in scale and we want to reflect that in our show. For the first time, OST will be putting on a Fall Fest in 2026! We’ve invited other San Diego groups to come show off their love for videogames and anime, whether it’s through music, art, or even game development! We hope our Fall Fest can be an opportunity for people to connect and bring our San Diego community together.”

This fall’s concert grows into a full afternoon and evening on the main stage. Doors open at 4:00 PM with three opening sets before the orchestra takes the stage at 7:00 PM. Anisong cover band Blue Moon Sanitzer opens with their pop-oriented arrangements of anime music, followed by Less Coronados feat. George “The Fat Man” Sanger, a San Diego-based surf rock trio featuring videogame music legend George Sanger (The 7th Guest, Wing Commander). Scarlet Moon’s Jayson Napolitano then hosts a live Name That Tune game show from the stage, giving away Scarlet Moon Records CDs and vinyl to the winners.

Out in the lobby, guests can browse tables between sets from San Diego game music record labels Scarlet Moon Records and Streaming Arrow Records, along with the International Game Developers Association (IGDA), who will bring a showcase of three local independent games for attendees to play. Scarlet Moon will also be showcasing their debut game, Sir Noggin. Food trucks including Ko Kai Khao Mun Kai and Sabor A Mi Kitchen will be on site for the evening.

About Orchestral Soundtracks (OST)

Formed in September 2023, Orchestral Soundtracks (OST) is a San Diego community orchestra for members to arrange and perform music from their favorite soundtracks. A group of musicians who came together through their college orchestra decided they wanted to continue playing, arranging, and conducting. They formed OST to provide that opportunity to everyone. OST aims to bring to life the artistic expression and emotional depth of both soundtrack music and musicians through live performance.
