FINAL FANTASY ORCHESTRA MILWAUKEE 2016 FULL

Though the English lyrics may be cheesy, I cannot help but love this twelve minute operetta. I didnвЂ™t expect myself to enjoy these two songs as much as I did.

For both of these songs, the dynamic quality (soft to loud, etc) really stood out as artistic. But then again, Emiko Shimatori showed her skill by singing both the English and Japanese versions of вЂњMelodies of LifeвЂќ in one performance. RikkiвЂ™s вЂњSuteki da neвЂќ was particularly powerful as it had the orchestra backing it (much like the end credits version from FFX). Shiratori their live performances sounded more heartfelt and meaningful than the studio recordings from the respective games. I was thoroughly pleased with both Rikki and Ms. I felt like the band couldвЂ™ve picked much better songs for their section of the concert, but perhaps didnвЂ™t do so because theyвЂ™d be too hard to pull off live. вЂњMaybe IвЂ™m a LionвЂќ is a decent FFVIII battle theme, but this arrangement just doesnвЂ™t do it for me. вЂњThe Rocking GroundsвЂќ is a worthwhile song, if only because itвЂ™s from an old Final Fantasy title. There werenвЂ™t any impressive solos or massive breakdowns: just a lot of 4/4 rock вЂnвЂ™ roll. Though the crowd seemed excited to hear them, I wasnвЂ™t all that impressed by the Black Mages. If the concert had ended here, I would have been satisfied. It beats the pants off of the Dragon Quest opening song, in my opinion. The majestic sound of this song is one I can never pass up. To bring an end to the orchestra section, the Final Fantasy main theme is on the scene. This performance is great, but with all the times that the audience laughs, I wish a limited edition DVD had been included I want to know what theyвЂ™re laughing at. Though the CD lists at as from the вЂњFF SeriesвЂќ, Swing de Chocobo is the FFX version of the song.

On the piano collection, this is one of my favorite songs, but the orchestral arrangement left a bitter taste in my mouth.Д«ouncing back, we get a big-band jazz version of the chocobo theme. While I was glad to see a pre-VII song on the album, the performance and arrangement are not up to par with the other songs on the album. The most disappointing track from the orchestra section is without a doubt TinaвЂ™s Theme from FFVI. Nonetheless, the more new arrangements we get, the better. This orchestrated version is great, but from what I can tell, it is the same arrangement from the arranged album вЂњFithos Lusec Wecos Vinosec.вЂќ ItвЂ™d been awhile since I heard this song, however, so I didnвЂ™t mind. The FFVIII battle theme is one of my favorite battle themes of all time. This is one of my favorite tracks on the CD.

The full orchestra backs up the featured instrument, and the overall performance is splendid. Why? Well, for starters, itвЂ™s no longer a piano solo track. вЂњAt ZanarkandвЂќ, the piano solo theme from FFX, really made me glad to own this album. This recording sounds great, but I was doing just as well with the recording at the end of вЂњReunion Tracks.вЂќ By the end of this first song, I knew that I was in for quite a treat.ДЄlright, I know itвЂ™s a fan favorite, but IвЂ™m getting tired of AerithвЂ™s Theme.

The opening song, which is also the opening to Final Fantasy VII, starts with that ominous soft sound, then builds to the вЂњBombing MissionвЂќ theme, which is truly outstanding. Now then, IвЂ™m going to have to tackle this one track-by-track. I had to turn my speakers up to a pretty high level to hear everything, especially in the softer orchestral songs. The only problem is that the volume (on the CD itself) is set fairly low. Then, as the encore, we combine orchestra, rock, and vocals for the big finale: a new arrangement of One-Winged Angel.ДЇirst of all, I have to say something about the sound quality. Ten through twelve is the vocal section, with themes from FFVI, IX, and X. Eight and nine are a mini-rock concert from the Black Mages. The first section is the orchestra concert proper: tracks one through seven. The full 75-minute album can be broken into four sections. I thought IвЂ™d never have the chance to hear it, until Square Enix announced that they had indeed recorded the performance and would be releasing it on a CD in February of 2006.ДЄnd, considering the relative lack of FF orchestral performances (вЂњrelativeвЂќ to, say, Dragon Quest), how could I not be excited? Though I myself missed the show, more than one RPGFan staff member got to see the performance, which included the вЂњMario and DracoвЂќ opera from Final Fantasy VI (which had not been performed in over a decade, last seen on Orchestral Game Concert 4). This show, entitled вЂњMore FriendsвЂќ, featured a full orchestra, the rock group вЂњThe Black MagesвЂќ, Rikki, Emiko Shiratori, some opera vocalists, and a big choir from a nearby college. After taking the вЂњDear FriendsвЂќ tour all around Japan, Uematsu and crew showed up in the US to kick off E3 2005 in Los Angeles.
