A nextday / Vinphonic co-Production
Taizo Takemoto conducts the Tokyo Philharmonic Orchestra
Kemono Friends ~Concert in the Forest~
Music composed by Akiyuki Tateyama and Masayoshi Oishi
Arrangements by Erika Fukasawa and Shota Fukagawa
PW: SafariWaltz (https://anon.click/wepon91)
Sample 1 (http://picosong.com/vJWZ) / Sample 2 (http://picosong.com/vJWi)
Concert provided by nextday. Arranged and edited by Vinphonic.
Recorded at Tokyo Opera City Concert Hall, July 30.
EDIT: New version is up with fixed tracks (no clicking) and new (lovely) cover by nextday.
Kemono Friends is one of those weird Japanese phenomenoms you can't quite grasp unless you actually live at the heart of the anime and game culture (like Sakura Wars). When this show started, made with the budget of a McDonalds Happy Meal (Tangotm), could you imagine this would get a full-blown orchestral concert with some really good concerto-esque moments?! And medleys TWICE as long as Kirby despite the fact that this show had no orchestral score whatsoever.
The lion's share of this achievment belongs to the arrangers and Erika Fukasawa is surprise, surprise, director of JAGMO.

I can only repeat what I've dug up in various research work. JAGMO is crazy. You can really hear the passion of the players, arrangers and conductors. The presentations of these concerts are absolutely nuts, incredibly charming and not commercial in the negative sense. They have passion en masse but in contrast to many orchestral indy groups, they have the talent andfunding to back it up. I hope one of their concerts makes it out on Blu-Ray somehow.
