Musical Mario: Super Mario and a violin…

What do you get when you pair a classically trained violinist with one of the most popular platform games of all time?

This video (you’ll need the sound on)

The video is one of many alternative versions for the classic 90s Italian plumbing game. It’s also been recreated on such odd instruments as an accordion, a selection of wine bottles with a remote controlled car and a beatboxing flute!

What do you think, quirky tributes or ruining a classic?
