Last year, I had the oppertunity to check out Distant Worlds: The Music of Final Fantasy (which is coming to Toronto Saturday March 31). The tickets were a gift, my girlfriend loves the series, so why not.
And I completely enjoyed myself.
As a music nut, it was hard not to be impressed by the skill of the musicians involved as well as the music itself. Fast forward to this week and I got the chance to talk to Arnie Roth. Arnie's not a household name but his a Grammy winner, he's worked with everyone from the Irish Tenors to Barbie (ok...maybe not worked with but he did do the score for a number of Barbie films) and he's the conductor/arranger on the current Distant Worlds tour.
We spoke for around 24 minutes and one thing was made clear, he really loves the music he's performing.

That was an interesting listen. I agree that Final Fantasy music is music that can be enjoyed by non-players (my sister doesn't play Final Fantasy and she enjoyed the concert).
It would be so awesome to have a marathon concert here!
Hehe, thanks for posting this. :)
