Some readers may already know about this, but the Royal Stockholm Philharmonic Orchestra has performed a couple of pieces from Final Fantasy, arranged by Roger Wanamo:

Final Symphony VI: Born with the Gift of Magic (http://www.konserthuset.se/en/play/uematsu-final-fantasy-vi/)

Final Fantasy VIII: Mono no aware (http://www.konserthuset.se/en/play/uematsu-final-fantasy-viii--mono-no-aware/)

Videos of the live performances are linked above.

Enjoy these very nice performances of Nobuo Uematsu's wonderful music!

Thanks a lot!

" I also extracted the audio streams, which are 256 kbps M4A format..". Thank you for extracting the audio, as opposed to transcoding it to mp3, which is what all the world's cretins do. Lossy to lossy conversions, such as the music on Youtube, are terrible from a quality perspective. It's like taping a show to VCR and then making copies from that pirate copy.

That was stunning. Thank you.

thank you for sharing!!

Thanks, although it would have been nice to have these performances in FLAC

Someone mind sharing the music? I can't seem to find it anywheer and the links to the trailers don't play anything but a blury still image. on chrome.

Works on Firefox. arrgh.

Awesome, much appreciated!
