These are mostly welcome changes that enhance the arrangement, which was astounding, moving, and epic to begin with. The “Maria and Draco” opera uses much of the same orchestration as previously heard in live recordings and performances, but now has the addition of a choir, narration, an extension of the duel, and Japanese lyrics (where existing recordings are in English). Two tracks on the album make updates to their existing arrangements. Again these are all fantastic arrangements of the original pieces, which now can be heard in better quality than previously available. The re-recordings include “Theme of Love”, “To Dear Friends”, “vamo’ alla flamenco”, “At Zanarkand”, and “Ronfaure”, and the two medleys of Final Fantasy I– III. These arrangements were first used in the programs for concerts such as Distant Worlds or 20020220. Other tracks on the album also use old arrangements, but these songs have been re-recorded with the FILMharmonic orchestra, since the previous recordings were not studio recordings. Although their inclusion might be redundant and disappointing to some, the album would be incomplete without them and the arrangements are still spectacular with no need for an update. “Memory of the Wind ~Legend of the Eternal Wind~” from the Final Fantasy III DS soundtrack, “Balamb GARDEN ~ Ami” from Fithos Lusec Wecos Vinosec, and the three tracks for Final Fantasy VII which all come from the the Final Fantasy VII Reunion Tracks.
Additionally, there are five tracks that are taken unchanged from old arranged albums. “Liberi Fatali”, “Suteki da ne -Orchestra Version-“, and “Fang’s Theme” all come from their respective original soundtracks. The album includes a number of unchanged, recycled tracks. A limited collector’s edition also exists that includes an LP vinyl. The album is Square-Enix’s first Blu-ray audio disc release, which takes advantage of the extra space by placing a few extras on the disc, on top of the two hours of orchestral music. The collection recycles some older material, but also includes new and updated arrangements.
One such product is the Final Fantasy Orchestral Album, which includes some of the most memorable songs from the fourteen mainline titles released to date, all in orchestral arrangements. SQEX-20010 (Regular Edition) SQEX-20008/9 (Limited Edition)įor 25th anniversary of Final Fantasy, Square-Enix released a number of products to commemorate the success of its prolific series.
