A London highlight was getting invited to the @Warcraft concert at @RoyalAlbertHall w @royalphilorch @helvepic ๐Ÿ˜ Not only was @ameliajvocals Invincible performance gorgeous, the orchestra also interpreted @neal_acree's moving #Anduin Theme (which I'm the original singer of) ๐Ÿ˜ญ

My sonโ€™s decided to support all the teams weโ€™re directly associated with at the World Cup - England, Canada, Norway, Australia and Japan. Given how distraught he was at Japanโ€™s heartbreaking exit yesterday, Iโ€™m worried about watching more games with him - especially tomorrowโ€ฆ

An absolute honour and privilege - from conceiving the idea with @mat_pawlak and @MariuszBorkows4, to meeting and working with the legendary @HitoshiSakimoto-san, to welcoming him to London and celebrating him all day. Thank you for the beautiful memories Saki-san and GMF team!!
What an absolutely magical performance! โœจ The Colors of Harmony concert was a dream come true, and we are still speechless. Bringing such complex and beloved musical worlds to the stage was a monumental task - we have so many incredible artists to thank. First and foremost, we want to shine a massive spotlight on our brilliant arrangers, Aruto Matsumoto and @choiby . Translating the intricate and rich scores of Final Fantasy Tactics, Final Fantasy XII, Odin Sphere, 13 Sentinels, Vagrant Story, Muramasa: The Demon Blade, and Dragonโ€™s Crown into live orchestral performances is no small feat. Your arrangements were absolutely breathtaking and gave us all goosebumps. Thank you for treating this music with so much love and brilliance! ๐Ÿ‘๐ŸŽต A massive thank you to the incredible London Mozart Players for a flawless, deeply moving performance under the masterful baton of Timothy Henty. We also want to express our heartfelt thanks to our mesmerizing vocalists, Amelia Jones and Ash McGlynn, whose voices added a layer of pure magic to the evening. โœจ Finally, our deepest respects to the legendary composer @HitoshiSakimoto . Your music has inspired us for years, and having the opportunity to celebrate your legacy live in concert was a true honor. Your presence at Fairfield Halls meant the world to the fans and our team. ๐Ÿฅน Thank you to everyone who joined us for this unforgettable evening of harmony! ๐ŸŒˆ Photos by Victor Frankowski

We recently had the great honor of giving an exclusive interview to @notebookcheck alongside the legendary composer, Hitoshi Sakimoto! ๐ŸŽถโœจ Sakimoto-san shared a very honest reflection on his journey with #FFT and #FinalFantasyXII: "I felt a great deal of pressure, especially with Final Fantasy XII. Participating as a creator in a work I personally loved was very difficult." ๐ŸŽถ If you want to know how he forged his own path and redefined the sound of tactical RPGs, this interview is a must-read. ๐Ÿ“ฐ โ˜•๏ธGrab a cup of coffee and check out the full conversation here: notebookcheck.net/Final-Fantโ€ฆ
