Final Fantasy- Video Game Music
Technology is here! Are you into video games? Whether your answer is yes or no, you must admit some of the music is great, especially the soundtracks to Final Fantasy. Which ones, you might ask? I didn't realize there are so many. In fact, did you know as you play these video games, in the background you can listen to swing or jazz music? Take a look at one review:

Still don't know what I'm talking about? Give a listening ear to Nobuo Uematsu's Final Fantasy with the Zanarkand Orchestra's version from the album Tour de Japon. It is absolutely mesmerizing with deep, rich tones and sweet melodic lines that will transport you to another place.

The series, Final Fantasy, began in 1987. From there it branched into numerous other avenues.

I wanted to share just one of many YouTube videos of excellent pianists that are really into the games and their music! Enjoy!
Of course, last but not least, is the first video game pianist Martin Leung also known as the Blind Pianist. Have you ever heard him play? Well, that's another story (Super Mario)...
