  • Secret of Mana was one of my favorite games on super Nintendo when I was a kid. Every time when listening to Symphonic Fantasies (Orchestra) this throws me back to the age of 10.

    Secret of Mana was one of my favorite 16 bit soundtracks back in the 90s. This nourishes my inner child.

    This arrangement blew Nobuo Uematsu's mind so hard he let orchestral arrangers go wild with his music from this point forward. Before, Uematsu believed that most orchestral arrangement should stick to the original arrangements with small deviations. Not just because it's what most people expect, it's also a lot easier and do not impede with people's perception of the tunes and the songs. Hearing this made him realize that game music can be arranged like classical music so that it can convey the story of the game just from the music, without any additional help (accompanying videos, nostalgia, knowledge of the games; like how most game orchestra are performed in Video Games Live and Distant Worlds for instance) needed. This belief birthed the Symphonic Odyssey and the Final Symphony album, which arranged Uematsu's works in a far more artistic manner.

      Correct, but this set is from a performance called Symphonic Fantasies which also performed music from the Final Fantasy series, Kingdom Hearts series, Chrono Trigger, and Chrono Cross so Uematsu, Mitsuda, and Shimomura were involved in this.

    I've heard some awful orchestral SNES music arrangements, but this is actually pretty good. In fact, they probably could not have made something better from the material. That being said, I'm still not a fan of these orchestral arrangements. The character and atmosphere of the original SNES pieces is just too specific and lo-fi to be captured by an orchestra. I'd rather just listen to the original soundtrack, maybe with a little bit of reverb added. This goes even more for my personal holy grail of video game soundtracks: Super Castlevania IV. Nothing I've ever heard does the original soundtrack any kind of justice.

    This is the most gaudy and pretentious version of Fear of the Heavens that I have ever heard that misses the key aspects that makes this piece. This is not a compliment.
    Whoever put his own "spin" on this interpretation completely missed the point. Which is no surprise in this scene...

      @@pascal5238 If I had to guess, it's the same thing I feel with orchestrated renditions of video game music like this. It tends to get very.... involved. It loses sight of the original piece and adds too much, for lack of a better word, fluff? Flourish? Too much artistic license that it starts to lose the original track, from the total melody, to the emotions conveyed, to intensity.
      Can even hear examples in soundtracks for game remakes/remasters. Compare original Secret of Mana SNES to the recent remaster release of a few years ago, the orchestration and instrument choices ruin a lot of the original tracks. Compare to Trials of Mana, remake of the Japan only released Secret of Mana 2 (Seiken Densetsu 3) and it's stupendously genuine to the original music. I'm ok with some artistic license, but the original song needs to still be clearly discernible. Look up Roman Heuser on youtube for some examples of well orchestrated interpretations, he's done a lot of Terranigma in particular and his Actraiser covers are also incredible. Also, Orchestral Fantasy is another amazing channel, and they do live instrument one-to-one interpretations of mostly of retro SNES and some PSX JRPGs (tons of Final Fantasy in particular).

      @@budakbaongsiah almost as interesting as how other people can have different opinions and like things differently, life is pretty amazing like that huh.
      Just because the original composers like something done a different way, I can only imagine how much they worked themselves to death creating these pieces to the point where they saw it as perfect for them. During the creation period they would have heard these songs so many times to the point it made them sick (i.e Yasunori Mitsuda during Chrono Trigger).
      Me personally I prefer things kept to the original style, how I heard it when I was a kid playing these years ago. That said each style attempted I see as a benefit, it's going to be good for someone out there at the end of the day that's all that matters 🙃

      Was I wrong to say that though? Did I say that OP is not allowed to not like the arrangement? If you like something, good for you. The writer of The Witcher hated the Witcher games. The writer of The Shining hated the film. Tolkien's son disliked Peter Jackson's The Lord of the Rings trilogy.
