Sample (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fEJg9I1kJo0)

Over two hours of orchestral goodness from Sakimoto, arranged by myself. Should there ever be a concert of his music, I hope some people take my suggestions here. One of my very first shares in this thread was a symphonic arrangement of One Piece, so in a sense I've come full-circle as well.
I've arranged a 40 minute arrangement of his Romeo X Juliet followed by various suites and medleys of his anime and game scores. Here's the full tracklist:

Romeo x Juliet Symphonic Suite I [The Red Storm of Neo Verona]
Romeo x Juliet Symphonic Suite II [Vigor and Agony]
Romeo x Juliet Symphonic Suite III [Oath and Revolution]
Romeo x Juliet Symphonic Suite IV [The Twin Trees of Escalus]
Aegis of Uruk [Suite of the legendary Climber]
Tactics Ogre [Suite of Field Tactics]
Valkyria Chronicles [Main Theme]
Valkyria Chronicles [Succeeded Wish]
Valkyria Chronicles 2 [Gallian Academy]
Valkyria Chronicles 3 [To the Frontline]
Vagrant Story [Staff Roll]
Odin Sphere [Suite of Valkyrie Descent]
Valkyria Chronicles Animation [Suite of Tragedy and Peace]
FFXII [Suite of the Zodiac Age]
Final Fantasy Tactics A2 [Words that were put together]
Dragon's Crown [Suite of Ancient Legend]
Encore #1 [Neo Verona]
Encore #2 [The Dalmasca Estersand]

Sakimoto is a composer that perhaps unlike any other game composer deserves far more projects with a symphony orchestra than what we got. The self-professed game composer and tunesmith par excellence graced us however with some pretty unforgotteable game scores. Here is a musical celebration of his modest but quality career.

He's also living his dream as a passionate gamer himself.



Needless to say the games he scored for are full of quality aswell. His music sometimes just works better ingame though. Every gameexcept maybe VC2+3 gets a recommendation.
Please let him loose on a symphony orchestra again, Japan, thank you.

I hope you decide to put this on your YouTube channel! :D Also, thank you so much for sharing this excellent compilation of Sakimoto music! I haven't actually heard some of these so it is nice to hear some of this for the first time.

Well, since you insist :D

I also made new arrangements for Tactics Ogre, Valkyria Chronicles and Valkyria Chronicles Animation. These can replace the old tracks:
