Live Video Stream for "Symphonic Fantasies – music from SQUARE ENIX"

You may have heard from this concert with all-new arrangements (http://www.symphonicfantasies.com) before, but this news warrants its own thread. I’ll post this in several message boards since it’s a great opportunity for those unable to attend, so don’t be surprised if you stumble upon it somewhere else.

Symphonic Fantasies will be the first game music concert to have a live video stream for fans world-wide to watch!

Enjoy the concert!

Hey, thanks for the heads up.

This is great! Thanks so much!

Wow I’m currently listening to it. Will somebody rip this?

Damn if i would have known I would have ripped it … 🙁

Thank you Prime Blue for mentioning this concert 🙂

Wow, didn’t expect to hear FF7’s "Fighting" with a choir.

Wow, didn’t expect to hear FF7’s "Fighting" with a choir.

Me neither, I’m totally impressed and saying OMG :O

Damn, I’m really angry at myself that I missed the Kingdom Hearts part, after hearing Destati … WOW 😀

Haha, "One Winged Angel" percussion.

Aaarghh just missed it. Please tell me somebody somewhere ripped it and is going to put it on the internet… Why did I have to work late today…

Because of my forgetfulness to write it down that this concert is going to happen, I managed to record only the Chrono Trigger and Final Fantasy part. Video quality is low, but audio is listenable 🙂

The music starts at 9:00 🙂

Enjoy your listen (at least half of it) for those who have missed it 🙂

My contribution, ripped from stream video, in VBR MP3. There are some popping noises and parts that had to be normalized to fix problems caused by the streaming. Enjoy!

Here is my thread and a rip of the concert in higher quality, MP3 @ 256kbps 🙂

Thread 69455

someone have the whole concert in video (not mp3) on megaupload or other?
