beautiful and energic orchestra arrangement
I've been a fan of Yoko Shimomura since her works on Seiken Densetsu ~Legend of Mana~ and Kingdom Hearts. Knowing that she's releasing orchestra arrangement album makes me want to order it. Although I'm getting it 3 years after the actual release date, I'm still not regretting, because the musics in this CD is really, really good!

So-so
There's no doubt that Yoko Shimomura did a wonderful job composing those songs. Die-hard fans of Shimomura should buy this CD. But if you're looking for songs from a particular game, this is not the right product :D

Fantastic Arrangements
I think that says it all, how wonderful it is to hear an orchestral arrangement of the well known themes from the various games with music composed by Yoko Shimomura

An amazing CD, worth every penny
Yoko Shimomura's music is always top notch, so when her tracks are performed by a full orchestra, things only get better. A great CDs for any lover of fine music, fan of Shimomura or not. Great buy!!
