While there are similar shows that showcase other game series soundtracks, The Legend of Zelda: Symphony of the Goddesses is the first in the world to feature a complete 4-movement symphony with arrangements approved by Nintendo Composer and Sound Director Koji Kondo and Series Producer Eiji Aonuma. The performance is conducted by the graceful Irish-born Eimear Noone whose videogame pedigree includes World of Warcraft, Starcraft II and Diablo III."
It was that time of year again, where talented musicians from all over the globe gather to perform the breathtaking melodies for The Legend of Zelda: Symphony of the Goddesses, a traveling orchestra.
James from COGconnected - I went to The Legend of Zelda: Symphony of the Goddesses concert in Vancouver and it melted my brain like taffy in the sun.
It is my goal to get to either this or the Distant Worlds - Final Fantasy show. Tickets are ridiculously expensive though.

I just went to this in Vancouver! So amazing. As a life long fan I was genuinely moved listening to the beautiful orchestra play the music of my childhood. A MUST see if your a fan of Zelda and/or just orchestral music.
The Legend of Zelda: Symphony of the Goddesses is finally getting a CD release of its wonderful orchestral renditions from the series.
