What the heading collects
Tom Brier Improvisation works as a grouping name rather than a formal title with one composer and one fixed form. The scores shown here are separate items: Balderdash! and two Super Mario ending-theme arrangements described as played by Brier. Check each title and credit before treating them as versions of the same piece.
Choosing between the scores
The Balderdash! score opens in G-flat major, 4/4 at 180 BPM. The Super Mario World arrangement opens with no sharps or flats in 2/2 at 124 BPM, while the Super Mario Land 2 arrangement opens with no sharps or flats in 3/4 at 125 BPM. These opening details help match a score to the performance you have in mind, but they do not establish difficulty or completeness.
Reading the credit chain on the Super Mario arrangements
Both Super Mario scores separate the original game composer, the performer Tom Brier, the arranger Ron O'Dell and the MIDI transcriber Cezary Sawecki. That chain matters: a score 'as played by Tom Brier' is a notated record of a performance, not the original soundtrack cue.
What is not established here
This page does not yet cite an authoritative external source for Tom Brier's biography, the origin of Balderdash!, or the accuracy of the composer credit given as Kazumi Tokata. Treat the score credits as leads to verify rather than as settled history.

What does 'as played by Tom Brier' mean in these titles?
In these titles, 'as played by Tom Brier' signals that the score is a transcription of Brier's performance rather than the original game soundtrack. The Super Mario credits separate the original composer, the performer, the arranger and the MIDI transcriber.
Is Balderdash! an original Tom Brier composition?
The score credits connect Balderdash! to Tom Brier and to track 5 of the album Constellations, but they do not say whether Brier composed the piece or arranged someone else's music. The composer credit therefore remains unconfirmed on this page.
