Akira Ifukube - Godzilla's Theme

Godzilla's Theme ゴジラのテーマ for solo piano
Composer: Akira Ifukube 伊福部 昭 (1914-2006)

From Godzilla vs. MechaGodzilla II (1993)

Typically regarded as the quintessential musical theme of the character, this piece contains motifs dating back to the original Godzilla (1954) and King Kong vs. Godzilla (1962). These parts were synthesized in Ifukube's Symphonic Fantasia no. 1 (1983), a medley of the composer's scores to various tokusatsu films. It was later rearranged for Godzilla vs. King Ghidorah (1991), Godzilla vs. Mothra (1992), and Godzilla vs. MechaGodzilla II. I have arranged it by ear to play on the piano.

Recorded on a Roland RD-800 stage piano

For those interested, a 10-year memorial concert of Akira Ifukube's music (including an arrangement of Symphonic Fantasia no. 1 for two pianos) will be held on December 17th in Evanston, IL. Information can be found in the link below:
