It's freaking stupid! Surely, it's not because they think it won't sell well (they surely know the Zelda Symphony concerts are big hits). So why, god, why? It's a damn shame.The Majora's Mask medley sounds awesome. Really like the short bit of Deku Palace we get to hear in the video. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BloodBoal 7,538 Posted March 18, 2016 Author Share Posted March 18, 2016 Better than nothing I guess! That's probably the closest thing to a CD release we'll ever get, At least the audio quality from the DVD will be (well, "should be") much better than all those fan bootlegs! Now let's hope that the audience at the concert they recorded was quiet most of the time! Thanks, Fal. I knew you'd bring us good news, eventually!

Incanus 5,715 Posted March 18, 2016 Share Posted March 18, 2016 As Japan is the promised land of such music releases why haven't anyone there recorded full symphonic versions of any of these scores or something along the lines of those Hisaishi image albums with extended 45 minute concert suites for a single score like Princess Mononoke? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BloodBoal 7,538 Posted March 18, 2016 Author Share Posted March 18, 2016 Because it's Nintendo we're talking about, and for some reason, they're not interested in releasing orchestral recordings by someone else of music from their games (and they don't consider themselves a recording company, so they don't even record and release it themselves!). That's why we got a lot of Final Fantasy orchestral recordings CDs and other franchises not owned by Nintendo, but nothing when it come to Zelda (apart from that one 25th Anniversary CD that was sold with Skyward Sword. We really got lucky with that one!), etc. A good example of that is the Symphonic series of concerts. You got things like Symphonic Fantasies (concert with music from video games by Square-Enix) which got a CD release, Symphonic Odysseys (concert with music by composer Nobuo Uematsu who worked on various video games) which got a CD release, Final Symphony (concert with music from Final Fantasy which got a Blu-Ray release) and then you have Symphonic Legends (concerts with music from Nintendo video games) which got no release whatsoever. It's all the Big N's fault. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well if its anything like the audience in the excellent videos I linked to above (which might even be the footage that will be on this DVD) then they will only clap in between pieces. On a sadder note: Quote Nikolas: Are there any Zelda games you haven’t performed music from? Jason: Yeah, there’re some titles, like Hyrule Warriors, which is not Nintendo first-party. So those aren’t titles that we feature. Nikolas: What about Minish Cap? Jason: I don’t think it is. Because Minish Cap, I believe, is a third-party game. So there’s the issue of licensing that and Nintendo hasn’t included it. I like Minish Cap, though. It’s kind of similar to Hyrule Warriors in the sense that it was a joint venture. Those, I believe, are the only two games that they actually brought on to a third-party developer. [Oracle of Ages/Seasons was also third-party.] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disco Stu 15,495 Posted March 18, 2016 Share Posted March 18, 2016 That doesn't make any sense. No matter if the developer was internal or external to Nintendo, Nintendo would surely own all assets associated with the game outright. That doesn't pass the smell test for me.

Disco Stu 15,495 Posted March 18, 2016 Share Posted March 18, 2016 I just replayed through Minish Cap on the Wii U Virtual Console this past Winter and really enjoyed the game. The music isn't the most impressive, especially compared to other top-down Zeldas, but I agree that it's really nice at times. 1 hour ago, BloodBoal said: Why would he lie? I wouldn't think he was lying, just that he was misunderstanding some details. But yeah you're probably right, Capcom's a big enough company that they'd demand some special rights set-up that a smaller developer wouldn't be able to get out of Nintendo.

BloodBoal 7,538 Posted August 16, 2016 Author Share Posted August 16, 2016 Nah. Looks like a dull "best-of"' compilation of tracks taken directly from the games and slapped on two CDs. The CD title doesn't even include the word "Symphony". It's just "The Legend of Zelda 30th Anniversary Music Collection", which to me highly suggests it will just be MIDI cues taken from the games and not orchestral recordings of cues from the games (the fact that it's a 2-CD set strenghtens that belief. They'd NEVER release a 2-CD set of orchestral recordings. It'd be too good to be true.). Would love to be wrong, but I doubt it, unfortunately.

BloodBoal 7,538 Posted January 6, 2017 Author Share Posted January 6, 2017 Wow, wow, wow... OK, so: First look at The Legend of Zelda anniversary concert album luxury box A few things: - the article above only mentions one CD, but in fact there are two (both the Amazon and CDJapan listings confirm that). So that's 2 CDs of music + 1 DVD of the concert performance. Pretty damn cool. - For people interested in the music but not the DVD, there's actually a version of the set without it, just the 2 CDs. See here and here. - About the concert: I've already heard about it, but I'm not sure what's it all about. By that, I mean: was it made by the same team that made the 25th Anniversary Symphony concert (and the following editions)? Did Chad Seiter do the arrangements, or someone else? What were the pieces performed? I've found no video of the concert on Youtube to find answers to these questions. However, the Wiki page of the concert gives us the program, and going by the title of some pieces, it seems to include some that were performed during the Symphony Of The Goddesses concerts, which suggests the same team worked on this new concert (or at least, the 30th Anniversary concert team used the same arrangements). - About the pieces included on the CD: this Wiki page seems to suggest ALL the pieces performed during the concert will be included (though no source is given). - And finally, one last question: was it a studio recording or was it recorded during one of the performances? Couldn't find a definitive answer to this, but the Wiki page of the concert seems to suggest it's a live performance recording (the one that took place on October 16. But again, no source given), which is a wee bit of a shame (though since the concert took place in Japan, there's a good chance the audience was quiet during each piece and only applauded at the end of it). In any case, this is awesome. Ordered! Cerebral Cortex 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
