This is a live in-audience recording from the concert in Wuppertal at 7:30 PM. Semi-Professional material was used (the ones which can make decent recording unnoticed.)
I used a zoom H1 which was able to reproduce a recording with quite an ok quality (Way better than the ones I've seen lingering on youtube)
Though I had no experience remixing classical music with this microphone I did my best and this is the result.

If anyone thinks he/she can make a better remastering of the recordings, do notify me and I'll upload the original unedited recordings. Not doing it from the start since they are quite large.

Hopefully they will release a studio recording soon, but if that won't be the case then at least it's brilliant music won't be lost this way.
I recommend anyone to see this concert in London if you can.
Cheers!

Soo close. I wanted to do my own record with Zoom H2N, but forgot to put the right SD card into. But when you did sit closer than me to the orchestra, my result would not be better than yours (Stood your device or lay it on the floor?).

Did you cut "II. Words Drowned by Fireworks" a little bit too early? Maybe I am wrong, but as I remember, the place of your cut was not exactly the end.

Ah, that's indeed where my recording failed a few seconds. It is indeed, a bit too short, but not more than two/three seconds. Sorry for this.

This is great, thank you! I won't listen to it now though as I am attending the London show on the 30th May which I will be recording. So look out for that as I will be posting here.

Well done. It's nice to hear them explore these scores outside of the usual three pieces from each in a masterful way. Thank you for this.

I was at the concert — rank 14*—*and besides two or three tracks that were really boring (I can't stand the Aerith's Theme anymore), the concert was a blast. Especially the FFVI piece, a real masterpiece. Listen to it. Now. NOOOOOOOW.

Thank you for sharing your recording; this is pretty listenable, unlike the YouTube versions. We in the States of modest financial means are much obliged. :)

I do believe that an album release is in the works, but from what I've heard it may not appear until 2014.

Personally I'm a big fan of Jonne Valtonen and Roger Wanamo's arrangements. FFX, which was arranged by Masashi Hamauzu, was an incredible disappointment to me. Ohwell, better next time.

Thanks for making the recording.
From the photos posted on SquareEnix's facebook page, the Hall sure looked beautiful.
I'm sure it was a great experience.

Good news for those seeking a higher quality recording of Final Symphony! There will be a live stream of the London Symphony Orchestra playing Final Symphony tonight :). Anyone able to record this?

That livestream is a question and answer stream.

I think I may be able to better edit your recordings. See this: Thread 112609 I recorded and remastered this, which was recorded with two android phones.

Fantastic recording! I was sat towards the back on the right of the balcony, and it still sounded great. I was gutted that I forgot to prepare my own recorders beforehand. Thanks for sharing :)

Just heard a few tracks, the recording quality is great (for an audience recording). Great job.

I'm completely confused as to why they haven't made an official recording. It seems like a beautiful concert and I'd love to attend it if only they'd come to NA. For now, this seems to be the only option for most people who aren't in the area.

I actually shot an email to Thomas Bocker a few weeks ago and he actually replied. He said they are planning on releasing a recording actually, and they should announce something this year!

On the official page there is a teaser for "Album coming soon". Final Symphony | Spielemusikkonzerte (http://www.spielemusikkonzerte.de/konzerte/final-symphony/)

But from where? In Stockholm only FF6 got recorded, that will be free to view on this page when ready: RSPOplay (http://rspoplay.se/)

There is no information about a recording in tampere.

FF6 was the only one that was *video* recorded, but I think I saw a picture of the piano concerto where I could clearly see a mic close to the piano, so I bet everything is recorded for the CD :)
