London Symphony Orchestra Tackles Final Fantasy With New Album
Symphonies are kind of like bands with many more musical instruments, but they're not lame. Case in point, the world-famous London Symphony Orchestra recently traveled to legendary Abbey Road Studios to record music from Final Fantasy VI, VII, and X, and you can now buy the album they created.
Following the 2013 Final Symphony European concert tour, Final Fantasy composer Nobuo Uematsu entered Abbey Road Studios to help oversee the recording of this new album, which is currently #4 on the Billboard Classical Chart. If you love video game music this is definitely worth checking out.
Watch the some behind-the-scenes footage of the recording process to get a sample of the music you could be listening to now:
